I can't run the Migrate.exe with given connection string

[ataba...@gmail.com]

Hey people,

In our class, teacher said he was going to use this extension and he only knew about the version 1.6.2 so I did download it and set it up on visual studio. Creating a new namespace was not hard as you can imagine but when it comes to running it on the command line, it doesn't work.

My command line command;

Migrate --db=MySql --target=PROJECTNAME.dll

-c="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Database=DBNAME;User Id=root;password=PASSWORD;"

The error that I am getting;

!!! Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts.

Can someone please help me?

Hi,

this sounds like the tool was unable to connect to the database. This can have multiple reasons, like:

- No server listening on "localhost" (IPv4: 127.0.0.1, IPv6: [::1])

- Non-standard port (3306)

- Access blocked by a firewall (unlikely, but possible)

Kind regards,

Mark Junker
