Hello.

Using PhpED 19.5 (Build 19543, 64bit) on Windows 10, I am trying to set up the integrated DB Client with PhpED but am unable to do so.

Actually, all of my servers are using MariaDB instead of MySQL.

So I downloaded (several versions of) the MariaDB connector, expecting this to work anyway.

The first problem is that the DLL is named libmariadb.dll, not libmysql.dll.
If I set this in PhpED, it is not accepted.

So I created a symbolic link to libmariadb.dll, to libmysql.dll

Using this symbolic link, now PhpED can load it. Not easily.

But any attempt to connect to a remote database, now, brings a message like the following :



Trying to get a actual libmysql.dll seems to be a real headache source, as this DLL seems to be no longer available on Oracle downloads.

Is it still possible to access a remote MySQL or MariaDB database from PhpED ?

Did you try original mysql C connector 6.0.x?
