Visual Studio ADO .NET 无法连接到 mysql 数据库

Question

I work on Windows Forms project in C# and I need to connect to mysql database (localhost:3306). I use Entity framework 6.4.0 and .NET Connector 8.0.18. When I go to Project -> Add New Item -> Data -> ADO .NET Entity Model and go to Code First from database -> New Connection , my Choose Data Source Dialog haven't option for MYSQL DATABASE

I have Mysql Workbench 8.0 and I connected to database.

When I click on other option I have dialog:

Can't find database to select. Where is the problem?

Answer 1

For that case, it normally happens when you install visual studio after installation of MySQL. Try re-installing MYSQL then it will have to work.

Note: Ensure backing up all your databases first

Happy programming.
