Zeoslib Portal

Hi, first of all, thanks for these cool components. I use a Windows XP Service Pack 3 and Delphi 6.

I wonder if you can connect via SSL with Zeos DBO 6.5.1 Alpha and MySQL 5.0.96.

With Zeos 7, I can connect, using the protocol mysql-5 in the dropdown property protocol of component TZConnection. But I have installed this version (Zeos 7) on Delphi 2010, which I can't use, because I need another components, and some of them I have only for Delphi 6.

The problem is that when using Zeos 6.5.1 in Delphi 6, I can only choose mysql-4.1 protocol and using this protocol, I get an access denied error.

Thank you very much for your help.

I recomend you to update to ZeosLib 6.6.6, you will be able to use mysql-5. It's very stable, I use it with delphi from 5 to 2007 without troubles. Also have a look on your delphi installation, it may has an older mysql dll that causes many troubles, just remove or replace it with a newer one.

About SSL, I can't be sure if it's available, never try that.

Thanks, Pitfiend, I was thinking it, I'll try it with Zeos 6.6. I'll write here what is the result.


Thanks very much again.

Effectively, the error was the version of Zeos. Now, with 6.6.6, it runs ok.

Thanks very much.

You welcome, don't esitate to ask when in troubles. Many in the forums can help you!
