'show databases' not working
« on: September 28, 2006, 06:12:51 am »
i'm trying to run the database component example posted on wiki at http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/MySQLDatabases. I've gotten to the point where I can regular query's at the 'show databases' point, but not the actual 'show databases' command that populates the list component(well, I'm doing a list, anyway). I always get 'Error executing query. You have an error in your syntax'. Obviously 'show databases' works at the mysql prompt, but not from the gui. help?????[/url]

I use 'show databases;' and it works fine. Did you remember to put the ; at the end of the command ?

It wasn't in the published code, but I tried it anyway and got the same thing. Get the same thing with 'show tables, with or without the ';'. Like I say, regular 'select * from <blah>' works fine even without the ';'. Hmmm......
