Installation
The only requirement for installation is .NET 2.0. The installation will register the MySql.Data assembly into the Global Assembly Cache.
General Operation
Connector/Net requires the following MySQL rights:
- SELECT right for the INFORMATION_SCHEMA database.
- EXECUTE right for the SHOW CREATE TABLE statement.
- SELECT right for the MYSQL.FUNC table (required for operations with User Defined Functions (UDF)).
- EXECUTE right for the SHOW ENGINE STATUS statement (required for retrieving extended error information).
- Appropriate rights for performed operations (e.g. the SELECT right is required to browse data from a table, etc.).
ASP.Net Deployment
Connector/Net will only function correctly under ASP.Net hosts that use a trust model that allows socket access. This includes Full trust, High trust, or a customized Medium trust scenario that has has SocketPermission added to it. For more information, please see Medium Trust.
