Matlab R2010b setting up MySql - mysql

I'm trying to setting up a mySql connection using Matlab, I have read I few tutorial but unfortunately I can't get work of them. I had tried to compile the source(.cpp) but I got the following error:
Error: Could not detect a compiler on local system
which can compile the specified input file(s)
C:\PROGRA~1\MATLAB\R2010B\BIN\MEX.PL: Error: No compiler options file could be found to compile source code. Please run "mex -setup" to rectify.
So I I typed "mex -setup"
Please choose your compiler for building external interface (MEX) files:
Would you like mex to locate installed compilers [y]/n? y
Select a compiler:
[0] None
Compiler:
but there is no compiler.
Anybody can help me, how can I make a connection between matlab and mysql, I'm using windows 7 64 bit and Matlab 2010b.
I already installed wampserver.

Have you tried to establish MySQL connection from MATLAB using JBCC connector?
I did it successfully and put the complete workflow with the code example (requires Database Toolbox) in this question:
connection of MATLAB 7.0 and MYSQL
Haven't try on 64-bit though. Please let me know if it will fail.
UPDATE
You can also try the following submissions to File Exchange that do not require the Database toolbox:
queryMySQL
Access a MySQL database

I'm guessing you installed Matlab 64-bit as well, which does NOT come with a built-in MEX compiler (32-bit version uses lcc). You have a few options, but the easiest is to install Visual C++ Express (it's free! http://www.microsoft.com/express/Windows/) which will give you a 64-bit compatible compiler in the mex -setup listing. You'll have to double check which versions of the compiler 2010b is compatible with though.
Caveat: I tried this once and couldn't get it to work, but it was with like 2007b or something, and I didn't try that hard, I just installed 32-bit Matlab.

TCL mysqltcl for 64bit windows platform

I need to updated few field of mysql database using the result from tcl program.
I downloaded the mysqltcl from http://www.xdobry.de/mysqltcl/windows.html
I read a note here that the dlls (libmysqltcl.dll & libmysql.dll) are not compatible to 64 bit windows.
I gave it a try and it gives error when i tried to use the load it throws below error.
couldn't load library "libmysqltcl.dll": invalid argument
I googled a bit and many had similar problems. I tried modifying the pkgIndex.tcl but it didn't work. Finally I need to write this here to see if anyone can guide to install the mysqltcl package on windows 64bit.

invalid argument when using TCOM from TCL script. ActiveTcl

I use ActiveStates TCL version 8.6.0.0 for Windows x64.
In a script I call:
package require tcom
Tcom is included in the installation but I get the following error:
couldn't load libary "C:/TCL/lib/tcom/tcom.dll": Invalid argument while executing
"load C:/TCL/lib/tcom/tcom.dll"
("package ifneeded tcom 3.9" script)
invoked from within
"package require tcom"
Does anyone understand whats actually missing? C:/TCL/lib/tcom/tcom.dll is installed on my system, so what is the "invalid argument" ?
This appears to be a 32-bit/64-bit issue. You can't mix different bit-sizes within the same process† and you may well have installed a 64-bit build of ActiveTcl 8.6.0.0 under the belief that matching the size of the build and the system architecture is a good idea. Alas, this is not the case. ActiveTcl 8.6.0.0 for 64-bit Windows, for commercial reasons‡, requires an extra product key to access their 64-bit builds of external packages. But you've got the package installed anyway (perhaps from a previous installation of ActiveTcl?) and that appears to be a 32-bit build.
The misleading error from using the wrong size of binary library build is unfortunate (a relatively minor bug stemming from the subtle differences between Windows and POSIX and how Tcl handles the mapping between the two) but I'd bet that's it.
The easiest fix is to:
Uninstall all copies of ActiveTcl that you've got installed, then
Ensure that your C:\Tcl directory really is deleted, and then
Install the 32-bit build of ActiveTcl 8.6.0.0 (which works just fine on Win64-based systems like 64-bit Windows 7 and Windows 8). Once you've done that, you
Use teacup update to get a full set of packages installed and you should get Tcom working.
†Except on ARM with extra trickiness, which doesn't apply here.
‡I'm not going to try to justify them; it's their decision, not mine.

Error MSB4062 when trying to build my CUDA program

I have faced with this problem. So many searching on internet but I could not find anything. At last I recognize that I closed Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1 features on Windows Features section in Control Panel.
to turn on Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5.1, you can easily follow these instructions;

I hope this solution will help you !
I've come across this problem after upgrading my system to windows 10. It turns out that I have to reinstall Visual Studio because some dependent dlls have been moved to Windows.old folder.
I had this same error when I was compiling on a remote server. I think it was because I was logged in using Remote Desktop (RDP). When I logged in using VNC and compiled, the error no longer happened.
Note that it's impossible to even install the CUDA Toolkit via RDP, so this is unlikely to happen, unless you regularly use both methods to connect to a server.

MySQL++ Application error at launch

I compiled MySQL++ with no issues. When I launched some of the executables (resetdb.exe and simple1.exe) they suggest to run to test if the installation has been successful, the first error I got was that libmysql.dll was missing.
Adding its path to the PATH environment variable did not fix the problem, even after launching a new command prompt; I had to copy the DLL in the directory where MySQL++ executables are.
Now the DLL is found, but I get this error:
simple1.exe - Application error
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b).
Click OK to close the application.
even launching from the command line, I get no more information than these.
Thank you for any help!
MySQL 5.5 -
MySQL++ 3.0.9 -
Windows 7 64 bits -
MINGW32 -
GCC 4.4.0
0xC000007B is a Windows error that means the executable is corrupted. It could refer either to simple1.exe or to one of the DLLs it's linking against.
Some reasons this could happen:
You're mixing toolchains in an incompatible way. In your case, you may have built simple1.exe using pieces built by MinGW GCC and pieces built by Visual C++. MinGW should be compatible with any pure C DLL built by Visual C++, including the MySQL C API DLL. However, you may have other pieces interfering. MinGW isn't compatible with VC++ at the C++ level, but then, it shouldn't have linked at all if this were your problem.
You didn't follow the MySQL C API import library build steps in README-MinGW.txt. You either missed a step, or skipped it entirely and are trying to use the import library that shipped with MySQL.
In your previous gyrations, you ended up with a corrupt object file, which got linked in. Try saying make clean all at the top level of MySQL++ to force a complete rebuild.
You're mixing versions of MySQL or MySQL++. If you have more than one version of each on the system, make sure you're consistent in their use. That is, build the C API import library from the same DLL you run the programs against, use exrun.bat to run the examples to ensure you're using the just-built version of the MySQL++ DLL instead of another you have in your PATH, etc.
Additionally, I note that you're using an older version of MySQL++. If you were on Linux, I could understand that as some distributions still ship with 3.0.9. But since you have to build MySQL++ from source with MinGW, I don't see why you're not using 3.1.0. Did you get a binary build from somewhere?
As for your PATH problem, did you restart the MinGW shell after doing this? PATH updates don't affect running programs; they keep the value they saw when they started.

MySQL and Matlab

I want to interact with a MySQL database from Matlab.
I found a mysql "library" for matlab here and the same on mathworks.
I followed the instructions to compile the library and the compilation seems to be successful. I get a mex32 file at the end. Only, the instructions on the first page refer to a Dll that I need to use (I guess that a Dll was supposed to be generated).
I am not familiar with the mex compiler or with compiling external modules for Matlab.
Am I missing something trivial? Where is the Dll supposed to be?
Thanks.
The reference to the dll is obsolete.
When you compile a mex function on Windows, you compile it as a dll (not an .exe). Thus, compiled mex functions used to have the extension .dll. Mex-functions with .dll extensions still work, but there is a warning that this might stop being the case in the future.
When 64-bit Windows arrived, TheMathWorks needed a way that people were to be able to compile the same mex-function for both Win32 and Win64, thus they changed the extension to .mexw32 and .mexw64, respectively. Apparently, they did not update the documentation completely.
I'd recommend using java to connect MATLAB and MySQL (or any other db if required).
The java database connector is simple to set up. I built a simple java class to connect to the database - see previous posting for a crude but working solution.
The MATLAB code works as indicated
% include java class
import Jam.ConnectToDatabase
% set up database connection info
userName='myName';
userPassword='myPassword';
databaseUrl='jdbc:mysql://glnd2818898.internal.net/2000';
% create java class instance and open connection to the database
ctd = ConnectToDatabase;
ctd.openConnection(userName, userPassword, databaseUrl)
Once the connection is open I can then use the java methods to submit SQL queries, create tables, insert data etc. I'd never used java before but I downloaded Netbeans and I was away.
OK, here is the solution to my problem.
The compilation does generate a mex32 file (32 is because I compiled it under a 32bit systme). You can check the output file of the compilation by running mexext. So apparently a mex32 file is a compiled version of the C file.
Once I placed the file in a directory that is in the Matlab's path it worked.
I guess the reference to the Dll in the link I provided is either obsolete or wrong.
