An application developed with VS 2010 and .NET 4, originally and successfully deployed on Vista, after installing on Windows 8.1 has exhibited the following problem (after installing the official MySQL data provider version 5.0.9):
A call to DbProviderFactories.GetFactoryClasses returns all the other providers (ODBC, SQL Server, etc.), but not the MySQL provider.
What could be wrong? Is the version not compatible with 8.1? Does the installer not register it so that DbProviderFactories.GetFactoryClasses can find it? Could there be a 64 vs 32 bit issue?

Anyone sorted this problem before?
This is usually a problem with your installation of .NET framework. E.g:

Check that your installations are all in working order by using the tools on this site:

You may have to re-install any or all of your .NET framework versions.
Instead of trying several methods that have not been approved, it is better to repair the MSSQL Server installation. On the other hand, there is some other issues that can be encountered during the repair process i.e. Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 as shown below.
In this case, if you have trouble during .NET Framework installation, you can install it by following the steps below (requires Windows 8, 8.1 or 10) setup disc or ISO file):
1) First you'll need to copy Windows 8 setup files to your hard disk. If you have Windows 8 setup ISO copied in your system, you can mount it by right-click on it and select "Mount" option or you can extract its content using 7-Zip.
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content, its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can access its content.
2) Now open Command Prompt as Administrator as mentioned here and then provide following command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:F:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Here "F:" represents the CD/DVD drive letter in your system which contains Windows 8 setup disc. Replace it with the correct drive letter according to your system.
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a directory, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.
3) As soon as you execute the above mentioned command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system and it'll not require Internet connection.
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.
4) That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.

I'm facing a trouble with Windows 8.
I've an application in VB6 using SQL Server 2008 through the net with SQLNCLI10 provider, which I always install with sqlncli10.msi, but when I tried to install in a PC with Windows 8, I can't... said something it's no more supported.
I use ADO for connection, and the string connection is:
Provider=SQLNCLI10;Server=SERVER\SQLEXPRESS;Database=MyDataBase;
Any ideas?
Are you installing on a 64-bit machine? If you are, you may need to create a reference directly to the C:\Windows\SysWow64\sqlncli.dll.
I was running VSExpress 2010 C# and SQLExpress 2008 on 32b XP. Due to a failure I am now on Win7 64bit. I have reinstalled VSExpress C# (64b). I installed SQLExpress (64b) however my application uses the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 driver to connect to a Office 2007 (32b) database. I could not get the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 to load on SQLExpress (64b).
What do I need to do to get Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 working again in SQLExpress? Do I need to run the 32bit version? (I have downloaded it but am having problems getting it to install so I am asking while I uninstall all of my SQLExpress)
Thanks for the help. (I saw a lot of similar issues addressed but could not find a solution for my specific problem)
I think this post has the answer you're looking for -- download 64-bit version of ACE OLE DB driver. However, apparently it requires installing 64-bit version of Office as well.
Otherwise go and install WoW-enabled 32-bit version of SQL Server 2008 Express. Go to this download page and download SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe (note: the one without 32 in the file name). It should install on 64-bit system.
I had the same problem and couldn't install the 64 version because I have 32 bit office installed as well (so the 64 bit installed terminated). I changed the build of my program to x86 instead of AnyCPU and the 32 bit ACE worked as given in this Stack Overflow question
If you are trying to use the 32bit version you will probably need to install the 32 bit version of the Microsoft Office Database engine. However if you have 64bit office installed this will show a message saying that 64bit is already installed.
If you install the Microsoft Office Database engine using the "/PASSIVE" command line argument it will install without the prompt, and then you can use the 32 bit ACE.OleDB.12 driver.
Beware in some situations this can cause complications with Office 64bit.
I had to install the Access 2007 Runtime to fix this. Here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4438
I'm working with
1) Window7 32bit
2) VS 2005
3) language: C#
I made an application that connects to an Access file and deployed the applicatioin with Clickonce on my computer.
I published in release/any cpu mode.
The prerequisites was .Net Framework 2.0.
When I installed the appliction on another computer (Window7 64bit, MS Access Database Engine 2010 32bit), an error occurred.
The error message was Cannot Connect to Database.... System.Data.
My connection string is Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=....
64-bit and 32-bit components don't play well together.
I had a similar issue with 64-bit Windows and a 32-bit ODBC driver. You most likely need the 64-bit version of the Access database driver.
I am trying to use the crystal reports application in ubuntu. So far i was able to connect the MYSQL database using c# in .net platform and run a small application in ubuntu over crossover linux.

This thread is an extension of the below thread.
Can't connect to MySQL for .NET application deployed in Wine using Ubuntu
The WineHQ db claims that it will run. However, if you do intend to target the Linux and Windows platforms, I would suggest a more cross platform compatible library.
I got the answer by my own after doing a small research.
The error was due the licensing problem of visual studio .net 2005. The following packages had to be configured in Merge Reports (i.e C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules)
Crystal_Managed2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003_enu.msm
Crystal_regwiz2003.msm
And then we need to enter the license key while deploying the application correctly.
Later the following packages would be installed automatically when we run the deployed .net application in ubuntu linux
