I have developed ASP.Net MVC application that uses MySql as database and it is running fine on the development machine. After I deployed it on the server, it is not able to connect to the database and provides the following error.
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
I already have MySql and mysql-connector-net installed on the server.
However, I am getting warning when I am launching Workbench
Unsupported operating system
You are using Workbench on unsupported operating system. While it may work for you just fine, it wasn't designed to run on your platform. Please keep in mind if you run into problems.
Do I need to modify the connection string somehow?
it is currently in the below format.
<add name="main" connectionString="server=127.0.0.1;port=1234;uid=mysqluid;pwd=mysqlpwd;database=mydbname;"/>
Here is the sample code of how I am interacting with the database.
internal static DataSet GetData(string sql, List<MySqlParameter> parameters = null, CommandType commandType = CommandType.Text)
{
var ds = new DataSet();
using (var connection = GetConnection())
{
using (var command = new MySqlCommand(sql, connection))
{
connection.Open();
command.CommandType = commandType;
if(parameters != null)
{
AddCommandParameters(command, parameters);
}
var adapter = new MySqlDataAdapter(command);
adapter.Fill(ds);
}
connection.Close();
}
return ds;
}
private static void AddCommandParameters(MySqlCommand command, List<MySqlParameter> parameters)
{
foreach (var parameter in parameters)
{
command.Parameters.AddWithValue(parameter.ParameterName, parameter.Value);
}
}
private static MySqlConnection GetConnection()
{
return new MySqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["main"].ToString());
}
