I can only tell “I read your message” as the other 109 views of this thread. Can’t really test anything now, haven’t yet setup an environment for this after building new PC. And i won’t be able to test this with MySQL, only the embedded-db. So, be prepared to not get any answer on this. We don’t have full time developers or supporters here.
This worked like a charm for me… and after a while the problem returns… I don’t know why’s that… now the connection string is correct and the tables encoding is correct… any clue?
