Connecting to mysql 5.1 with Ubuntu 10.04 Lazarus
« on: October 30, 2010, 02:37:32 pm »
I have searched hi and low on how to do this.  I've tried the suggestions elsewhere on this forum to no avail.  There HAS to be a way to easily connect to mysql 5.1  %)  Check this out  http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=17406    Michael Van Canneyt (administrator)  has something here but I can't get it to work.  He uses the standard sqldb components instead of zeoslib.  Maybe someone with more experience with FPC can post details on how to do it.

Try download latest snapshot, bug is already fixed (at least in 2.5 branch), so it should work now.

Download and install from ftp://www.hu.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/snapshots/
-or-
http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/

look for 2.5.1 or 2.4.3 versin of FPC (I am not sure if it is fixed also in 2.4 branch, so you must try)

Thank you Lacak2,
I have the snapshot of 2.5.1 (fpc-2.5.1.i386-linux.tar.gz) but i am unsure what to do with it.  Could you please provide details on how to update to this version? I am using Lazarus 9.28.2.  Any help would be greatly appreciated

I am not very familiar with Linux (I am using Lazarus/FPC only under Windows and there is prebuild package, which can be downloaded from above mentioned ftp site).
I think, that you must set in Lazarus Environment/Options paths to FPC 2.5.1 directories ... may be, someone other can be more precise.

On last december, I've connected to MySQL 5.1 using libmysql.dll from MySQL 5.0.

No, only since yesterday. 

btw
For Zeos, you must derive your own connection helper (some interface) for 5.1 iirc.
But I know this only from monitoring forums, I use postgres.
