Connection to MySql

Post by LarsSonderskov »

Hello out there

I am facing a problem connecting to MySql 8.0.31.

When trying to connect to MySql through Web Administration interface, I get an error using the "MySql Settings" tab under "Domain Settings", when testing the connection.
The generated error is "Database connection failed!"
Thats not much help.

Using the same settings in "MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE" connects fine, using TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 encryption.
As I understand both WingFTP 7.2.0 and "MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE" use the same C++ connection library.
Is there a way to debug this or how do I go further with debugging.

Did you create a database "wftp_database" in MySQL database?

Hi FTP

Yes I did, and I see it when I connect from "MySQL Workbench"
