Re: Problem connecting to MySQL database with dbExpress

Hi,

The property value '10.2.200.224' in dbxconnections.ini is an IP
address not a host name. Also you seem to have specified this
property as 'ServerName' in dbxdrivers.ini. You should specify the
host name of the same server in both these properties.
