Make sure that the correct libMySQL.dll is being loaded, Every time you install something new that utilizes libMySQL.dll it is installing it in some Global path (like WINDOWS/System32 or other) and during the runtime it is loading it instead of the one that you are referencing in your project.

I would recommend to search your PC for libMySQL.dll to find all the occurrences and verify that those are the right ones. Another thing could be done, is that you can place the latest libMySQL.dll in the directory where your application resides, so that WINDUHS load the one that is located in the same directory as your app.

I've had the same problem - I can connect when connecting as a user with

no password, but not as a user with a password.

However, this is not a problem with MySQL++, but rather with the underlying C API.

Try connecting using mysql_real_connect(), and you should have the same problem. I've posted to the general MySQL list, but haven't received much of a response yet.

Is it possible that you have two versions of MySQL installed on your system, and are building against one but trying to connect to the other? Or, that you are using a pre-built version of MySQL++ instead

of building it against the libraries and headers on your system?
