No matter what I try, I cannot get Lazarus to connect to my MySQL5.7 server
This version connects very well to MySQL5.6 and to MariaDB 10.2.
I have found a libmysql.dll that makes this happen.
MySQL5.7 is another story.
After downloading 'TOAD for MySQL8.0' I can see that the server is willing and able.
So I think that the problem is in the combination of libmysql.dll and MySQL57Connection.
Question: What do I need besides MySQL57Connection to connect to a MySQL57 server?
Help is appreciated
