    Hello.  I'm trying to get Domo v2.3 up and running, but am running into some problems with the MySql.  Currently running Fedora Core 2 with MySql v3.23.58-9, should be the most up2date via yum.  So here is the problem;

    I can get on mysql via the mysql command with user root, enter my password that I have set, and use the default database 'mysql'.  Its all good as far as I know as mysql knows.  The problem is that when I try to give the Domo setup wizard the information, with database being mysql and host being localhost, and user being root with the correct pwd, I get the error message:

    [0] [SetupDialog::createDbase] Error: Failed to connect to database
    Root cause: Method: 'Dbase::createConnections'
    Message: Failed to open database 'localhost@mysql' as user 'root' using driver 'QMYSQL3'

    For some reason, the database 'localhost@mysql' just doesn't look right, I don't have host 'mysql', so I tried swapping the host and database name to get an error message that complained of not being able to connect to 'mysql@localhost' as root user.

    I consider myself a non-newbie, spend a lot of time on the terminal, but MySql is a new bird to me.  Any help/comments?  Would be most certainly appreciated.  Thanks

      First of all thanks for the reporting, sorry I took so long to reply (I was out of the country).

      As to the error message, it was just being reported wrong, of course it should be name@host (fixed in cvs).
      So just ignore the host@name in the error message.

      Concerning your problem.  Very weird if you can connect to mysql through the command line but not through domo.... (u sure mysqld is running?)
      I've added more logging output to setupdialog.cpp and committed to CVS. 
      I suggest you try updating to the CVS version and try again.

      Good luck
      Dirk
