Using MySql Provider with Entity Framework Model - mysql

I googled about this topic but I don't really find a solution :
I try this method : I installed in my vs2013 these tools :
MySQL for Visual Studio 1.1.1
MySQL Connector/Net
I Installed also, using NuGet, all MySql library or tools. But I'm still not find the MySql Provider.
So I need to know How can I fix this issue?

You can add the reference for the required package MySql.*.dll

MySQL workbench not installing

I am trying to install MYSQL Workbench but shows the error that says
Mysql workbench require the .net framework 4.5.2 to be installed.
But then when I download .net framework in my windows 8.1 it says
Microsoft .net framework is already a part of your system. You don't need to install the .net framework 4.5 redistributable.
So now please help me.
There are several ways to fix the issue:
1) Go to: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=480542
and update the MySQL INTALLER
to add Workbench 8.0
if that doesn't work
2) go to: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/source-configuration-options.html
and look at possible resources to fix the issue,
3) Go to : Visual Studio and Modify by selecting
Desktop development C++
this will allow you to update the required software.
if all of these methods fail completely uninstall Visual Studio and MySQL and continue to restart computer.
Reinstall: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=480542
good luck.
This issue MySQL workbench caused because of .Net Framework 3.5 on Windows 8. Please install .Net Framework 3.5 on Windows first and then try MySQL workbench or follow these references
Follow Reference 1 or Reference 2

It was because of MySql Connector version. I installed an older version and it worked.

MySQLconnection in entity framework 4

I'm trying to use a MySQLdatabase with Entity Framework 4
I've installed the connector from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/ but still when i try to add the conection there's no option for MySQL

Ok, i've been searching arround and found out why this is happening, so for anyone who is trying to use MySql connector with an Express version you should know that Visual Studio Express DOES NOT support MySQL .NET Connector as extension.

Try uninstall existing mysqlconnector.

How do I use Entity Framework with MySQL Connector noinstall version?

Does anyone know any way to have the Entity Framework working with mysql connector 6.3/6.4 no install version? I can add the dll-s to my project, but I can't add the connection to the Entity framework because it doesn't see mysql.
The steps to get mySQL and entity framework working are available in this blog post
If you are trying to do it without have a database installed, I do not think that that is possible.
