I am trying to connect to a MySQL database in my C # .Net application
I get this error when trying to connect: Keyword not supported: "port".
An error message appears with my connection string
<add name="mydataEntities" connectionString="server=myserver.com;port=3306;password=xxxx;user id=yyyy;database= mydatabase;persistsecurityinfo=True" providerName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" />
I have a link for: MySql.Data 6.9.7.0 (ADO.Net driver for MySQL) And MySql.Data.Entity.EF6 6.9.7.0 (Entity Framework 6.0 support supported)
In my configuration, I have:
<entityFramework> <defaultConnectionFactory type="System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.LocalDbConnectionFactory, EntityFramework"> <parameters> <parameter value="mssqllocaldb" /> </parameters> </defaultConnectionFactory> <providers> <provider invariantName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" type="MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlProviderServices, MySql.Data.Entity.EF6, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d"> </provider> </providers> </entityFramework> <dependentAssembly> <assemblyIdentity name="MySql.Data" publicKeyToken="c5687fc88969c44d" culture="neutral" /> <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-6.9.7.0" newVersion="6.9.7.0" /> </dependentAssembly> <system.data> <DbProviderFactories> <remove invariant="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" /> <add name="MySQL Data Provider" invariant="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" description=".Net Framework Data Provider for MySQL" type="MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlClientFactory, MySql.Data, Version=6.9.7.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d" /> </DbProviderFactories> </system.data>
Connection string
installed here:
public class Repository { protected mydataEntities DbContext; public Repository() { DbContext = new mydataEntities (ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["mydataEntities"].ConnectionString); } }
I noticed that the stack trace seems to be using the System.Data.SqlClient provider, as shown below:
I removed the MySql.Data and MySql.Data.Entity.EF6 links, cleared the solution, added backlinks, then rebuilt .....
Can someone help me figure out the source of this error?
Why MySQL connector is not used using the provider name: MySql.Data.MySqlClient, as indicated in my configuration.
