wim · Post by **wim** » 30.12.2007, 18:46

All,
can someone explain me how to install Zeoslib working with Delphi 5 and MySql 5 ?
1) which files do I have to download ?
2) sequence of installing the package because, I do not find any *.bpl ... as mentioned in the doc's

With the current version, I receive a message like that there is no drive for my MYSQl-version ...
The ZDE.exe and added *.dll opens well the MySql-database, but as I read, Zde was made with Delphi 6 ?

Othewhise I receive an error telleing me taht there is a MySql - datatype error when I try activating a Sql

Any help would be very apreciated

Wim

YOu should be able to use ZoesDBO 6.6.2 with Delphi 5.
Just open the ZeosDBO Projectgroup from packages/delphi5
Compile all.
Install the last package.
Make sure the right libmysql.dll is available in you system path or the directory where your project's exe file is.
Now choose the Mysql 5 protocol from the ZConnection objects in your project.

Yes,
In ZConnection objects I can choose the Mysql 5-protocol, but ther it stops.
Making a connection results succesfull, but when I use a ZQuery-object and link it with a Table and activating it, I receives a MySQL-Type-error ...

The used libmysql.dll is that one delivered with XAMPP-version 1.6.5

By the way, thx helping me !

Ooohhhh,

I suppose that's for every query you execute?

Can you check what dll version that is?
After connection read out ZConnection1.ClientVersionStr (eg. Showmessage(ZConnection1.ClientVersionStr); )

I'm working with the dll you find in the svn snapshots.
