Hello,
I'm not sure how to fix this - I have Lazarus installed on one computer and everything with libmysql is working - I can connect/query my database and fill a dbgrid successfully. I have the same version of lazarus and the libmysql.dll on another computer both having the same bitness on operating system (windows 10) and Lazarus keeps giving me the error "cannot load default mysql library (libmysql.dll) check your installation".
I have the DLL in the system path and just typing the name of the dll at the command line brings up an error saying it needs an application to load the dll which indicates to me that it is found in the path. I also have the DLL in the project directory and also in the c:\lazarus directory.
What am I missing?
EDIT: I also forgot to mention that I installed MariaDB which comes with HeidiSQL and I can use Heidi to access the database that I'm trying to access in Lazarus using the libmysql.dll (in the dropdown in heidi) and connect just fine.
