3.3 Connection String Options

MySQL Connection Options

The following table describes the options that you can include in the connection string for
MySQL:

Option Description
Server Serves to supply the server name for login.
Port Used to specify the port number for the connection. 3307 by default.
User ID Used to supply a user name for login.
Password Used to supply a password for login.

Database Used to set the name of the database

Used to set the character set that ODBC driver for MySQL uses to read
Charset
and write character data.
Informs server that all data between client and server sides will be passed
in Utf8 coding. Setting this option converts all fields of the String type into
WideString that allows to work correctly with symbols of almost all
UseUnicode
languages simultaneously. On the other hand, it causes a delay in working.
If the Use Unicode property is enabled, the Charset property will be
ignored. The default value is False.
ConnectionT Used to specify the time in seconds before an attempt to make a
imeout connection is considered unsuccessful.
Used to specify the version of the Internet Protocol. Ipv4 and Ipv6 are
IPVersion available. The IPBoth option value allows to check for available protocol
versions and use the first available automatically.
Used to apply compression on transferring data. Setting this property to
True is quite effective on transferring big volumes of data through slow
Compress connection. Pay attention that each row is compressed separately. Be
careful when setting this option as in some cases it may decrease fetch
speed instead of increasing. The default value is False.
Permit interactive_timeout seconds (instead of wait_timeout seconds) of
inactivity before closing the connection. The client's session wait_timeout
Interactive
variable is set to the value of the session interactive_timeout variable. The
default value is false.

Advanced Settings

Option Description
Allow NULL
To retrieve metadata, not all parameters according to MSDN can accept a
strings
null value. If NULL, the driver should return an error. But some 3rd-party
Empty
tools pass NULL to the parameters. These options should be enabled for
strings as
compatibility with such tools.
NULL

ODBC Used to set the behavior corresponding to the ODBC specification

version that a third-party tool expects. The behavior of ODBC driver can
be changed by setting a value for the SQL_ATTR_ODBC_VERSION
attribute by calling the SQLSetEnvAttr function. But some third-party tools
expect the driver to exhibit ODBC 2.x behavior, but forget to call
SQLSetEnvAttr with the specified version or pass an incorrect value there.
Behavior In this case, the required behavior can be explicitly specified in the
Connection String by setting the ODBC Behavior parameter. The possible
values are:
Default - default ODBC behavior determined by a third-party tool.
Ver 2.x - ODBC 2.x behavior is explicitly set.
Ver 3.x - ODBC 3.x behavior is explicitly set.
Used to specify the number of seconds that the execution of an SQL query
Query
can take before it is terminated and an exception is raised. If the value is
Timeout
0, no timeout will happen. The default value is 0.
RegionalNu
mberSetting Enables using local regional settings when converting numbers to string.
s
RegionalDat
Enables using local regional settings when converting dates and times to
eTimeSettin
string.
gs
Sets the string value types returned by the driver as Default, Ansi or
Unicode.
Default - the driver defines the string types.
Ansi - all string types will be returned as SQL_CHAR, SQL_VARCHAR
and SLQ_LONGVARCHAR.
String Types
Unicode - all string types will be returned as SQL_WCHAR,
SQL_WVARCHAR and SLQ_WLONGVARCHAR.

The option value should be changed if any third-party tool supports only
Ansi string types or Unicode ones.

Mapping Used to convert TIMESTAMP values to VARCHAR values. The default

TimeStamp value is False.
as VarChar

3.4.1 SSL Connection Description
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the protocol for secure access to remote computers over
insecure communication channels.
The SSL protocol runs above TCP/IP and below higher-level database protocol. It uses TCP/
IP on behalf of the higher-level protocols, and in the process allows an SSL-enabled server to
authenticate itself to an SSL-enabled client, allows the client to authenticate itself to the
server, and allows both machines to establish an encrypted connection.
These capabilities address fundamental concerns about communication over the Internet and
other TCP/IP networks:
SSL server authentication allows a user to confirm a server's identity. SSL-enabled client
software can use standard techniques of public-key cryptography to check that a server's
certificate and public ID are valid and have been issued by a certificate authority (CA) listed
in the client's list of trusted CAs. This confirmation might be important if the user, for
example, is sending a credit card number over the network and wants to check the
receiving server's identity.

SSL client authentication allows a server to confirm a user's identity. Using the same
techniques as those used for server authentication, SSL-enabled server software can
check that a client's certificate and public ID are valid and have been issued by a certificate
authority (CA) listed in the server's list of trusted CAs. This confirmation might be important
if the server, for example, is a bank sending confidential financial information to a customer
and wants to check the recipient's identity.
An encrypted SSL connection requires all information sent between a client and a server to
be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the receiving software, thus
providing a high degree of confidentiality. Confidentiality is important for both parties to any
private transaction. In addition, all data sent over an encrypted SSL connection is protected
with a mechanism for detecting tampering--that is, for automatically determining whether
the data has been altered in transit.

SSL is based on algorithms of asymmetric encryption and digital signature. Consult MySQL
Reference Manual for information about how to enable SSL support for MySQL server and
generate certificates .

Note:
Usage of SSL is more preferable for MySQL connections than SSH because of less
required settings and higher performance.

How to connect to MySQL using SSL

To use SSL encryption for connection to MySQL, the corresponding SSL connection options
should be set:

Using ODBC Data Source Administrator

Example Connection String

User ID=root;Password=root;Server=db;Port=3307;Database=test;Use
SSL=true;SSL CACert=c:\cacert.pem;SSL Cert=c:\client-cert.pem;SSL
Key=c:\client-key.pem;

3.4.2 SSH Connection Description
ODBC Driver for MySQL allows connection to MySQL server from a local computer using
SSH tunneling.
SSH (Secure Shell) is the protocol for secure access to remote computers over insecure
communication channels.
The general chart of computer ties when connecting through the SSH tunnel is presented
below:

This connection method provides secure connection between your application using ODBC
Driver for MySQL and SSH server that can go through insecure communication channels, like
Internet.
Connections between DB server and SSH server are insecure, therefore they should go
through secure communication channels. In the confluent case, DB server and SSH server
can be located on the same computer.
The principle of working of the SSH connections is described below. The SSH server listens
to the specified TCP/IP port. When the client tries to connect to this port, the SSH server
authenticates the client. If the authentication passes, the connection is established. Then the
client should create connections to DB server objects. The client sends an inquiry to establish
necessary connection to SSH server, and the server establishes it.

SSH Configuration using OpenSSH or other third-party

SSH tunnel
The following is the step-by-step sequence of actions for the easiest case of using OpenSSH
for Windows. The detailed description of each command you can see in the documentation
for OpenSSH.
1. Download OpenSSH for Windows from http://sourceforge.net/projects/sshwindows/
2. Install SSH server:
o Choose a machine that will be used as SSH server. It does not have to be the same
machine that is a MySQL server, but communication channel between SSH server and
MySQL server must be protected
o Using Windows Control Panel create a user and set a password for him. For example,
SSHUser with password SSHPass
o Install Open SSH. It is enough to install only Server components
o Open OpenSSH/bin folder
o Add SSHUser to the list of allowed users:
mkpasswd -l -u SSHUser >> ..\etc\passwd
o Use mkgroup to create a group permissions file

mkgroup -l >> ..\etc\group

o Run OpenSSH service
net start opensshd

Note:
There is no need to install SSH client, since ODBC Driver for MySQL itself implements
SSH client functionality.

About the methods of higher protection (key authentication, etc.) see documentation for
OpenSSH.

How to establish SSH connection to MySQL

To establish a SSH connection to MySQL, the corresponding connection options have to be
set, like shown below:

Using ODBC Data Source Administrator:

SSH Options Description:

Option Description
Use SSH Enables or disables SSH tunneling.
Holds the host name or IP address of the
SSH Host name
SSH server to connect to.
Used to specify the port number for SSH
SSH Port
connection.
SSH User Name Sets the SSH user name for authentication.
Sets the SSH user password for
SSH Password
authentication.
Used to specify the path to the file
containing the SSH Private Key.
If the authentication by key is used, the user
must have his pair of keys. The public key
should be transferred to the server, while
the private key will be used by the client to
SSH Client Key
sign data,
that will be used by server to authenticate
the user. The server verifies the specified
user name and Private Key - and if the
Server Key corresponds to this user,
connection may be established.
Used to specify the path to the file that
SSH Server Key
contains SSH Public Key.
Used to specify the path to the directory
SSH StoragePath
where encyption keys are stored.

Example Connection String:

User ID=root;Password=root;Server=db;Port=3307;Database=test;Use
SSH=true;SSH Hostname=localhost;SSH Port=22;SSH
Username=SSHUser;SSH Password=SSHPass;SSH Client Key='C:\User\...
\PrivateKey.pem';SSH Server Key='C:\User\...\PublicKey.pem';SSH
StoragePath='D:\...';

Reserved.
3.4.3 HTTP Tunneling Description

Connection through HTTP tunnel

Sometimes client machines are shielded by a firewall that does not allow you to connect to
server directly at the specified port. If the firewall allows HTTP connections, you can use
HTTP tunneling based on the PHP script.
An example of the web script tunneling usage can be the following: you have a remote
website, and access to its database through the port of the database server is forbidden. Only
access through HTTP port 80 is allowed, and you need to access the database from a
remote computer, like when using usual direct connection.
To start using HTTP tunneling, you should deploy the Tunneling script. The php script must
be available through the HTTP protocol. You can verify it is accessible for a web. For this
enter the http://www.domain.com/tunnel.php address to a web browser and check the result.
The only requirement to the server is PHP 5 support.
P.S.: tunnel.php is provided along with ODBC Driver for MySQL. It is available at the driver
installation path, in the http folder, by default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Devart\ODBC\MySQL\http
\tunnel.php
To connect to the database, you should set connection parameters for usual direct
connection and set the following parameters specific for the HTTP tunneling:

Using ODBC Data Source Administrator

HTTP Options Description

Option Description
Use Http Enables or disables HTTP tunneling.
Http Url Holds the url of the tunneling PHP script.
Http
Set these properties if the access to the website folder with the script is
Username
available only for registered users authenticated with user name and
Http
password.
Password
This option specifies whether or not the driver should trust the server
Http Trust
certificate when connecting to the server. The default value is False – the
Server
driver won't trust the server certificate and will verify validity of the server
Certificate
certificate instead. If set to True, the driver will trust the server certificate.

Example Connection String

User ID=root;Password=root;Data Source=localhost;Database=test;Use

Http=true;Url=http://server/tunnel.php;Http Username=HttpUser;Http
Password=HttpPassword;

Connection through proxy and HTTP tunnel

Consider the previous case with one more complication.
HTTP tunneling server is not directly accessible from client machine. For example, the client
can reach the server only through proxy at address 10.0.0.1, which listens on port 3128. In
this case in addition to the HTTP options, you have to setup Proxy options as follows:

Proxy Options Description

Option Description
Holds the host name or IP address of the
Proxy Host Name
proxy server to connect to.
Used to specify the port number for TCP/IP
Proxy Port
connection with proxy server.
Proxy Username Holds the proxy server account name.

Proxy Password Holds the password for the proxy server

account.

Example Connection String

User ID=root;Password=root;Data
Source=192.168.0.10;Port=3307;Database=test;Use
Http=true;Url=http://server/tunnel.php;Proxy
Hostname=10.0.0.1;Proxy Port=3128;Proxy User=ProxyUser;Proxy
Password=ProxyPassword;

Additional information
Technically speaking, there is one more way to tunnel network traffic. The Secure Shell
forwarding, or SSH, can be used for forwarding data. However, main purpose of SSH is traffic
encryption rather than avoiding firewalls or network configuration problems. The SSH
Connection article describes how to use SSH protocol in ODBC Driver for MySQL.
Keep in mind that traffic tunneling or encryption always increase CPU usage and network
load. It is recommended that you use direct connection whenever possible.

3.6 Sandboxed Apps on macOS

Sandboxed Apps on macOS

Sandboxed applications don’t have permission to create or modify files and folders in your
system. This is caused by the System Integrity Protection (SIP) technology on macOS that is
designed to protect your files and folders from potentially malicious software by locking them.

In the context of ODBC drivers, sandboxed applications don’t have permission to access
iODBC Driver Manager on macOS. When retrieving data from a database into an application
such as Excel via ODBC Driver for MySQL on macOS, you may get an error message
saying that the driver is unable to create a file.
Note that all third-party apps distributed through the Mac App Store are sandboxed.

Disabling System Integration Protection (SIP) on macOS

To give your application the necessary permission and get rid of the error message, you need
to turn off SIP on your macOS.
1. Turn off your Mac.
2. Reboot your Mac into Recovery Mode by restarting your computer and holding down
Command + R until you see the Apple logo on your screen.
3. Click Utilities > Terminal.
4. In the Terminal window, type in csrutil disable and press Enter.
5. Restart your Mac by entering reboot in the Terminal.

After reboot, your Mac start will SIP disabled and you’ll be able to fetch data through an ODBC
driver without any errors. You can check the status of SIP by entering csrutil status in the
Terminal. The message should say: "System Integrity Protection status: disabled".

Don’t forget to re-enable SIP when you finish retrieving data into a third-party application from
an ODBC source. You can turn on SIP by following the above instructions and typing in
csrutil enable at step 4.

4.1 Using in DBeaver

DBeaver Overview
DBeaver is a free, open source multiplatform database management tool and SQL client for
developers and database administrators. DBeaver can be used to access any database or
cloud application that has an ODBC or JDBC driver, such as Oracle, SQL Server, MySQl,
Salesforce, or MailChimp. Devart DBeaver provides you with the most important features
you'd need when working with a database in a GUI tool, such as:
SQL queries execution
Metadata browsing and editing
SQL scripts management
Data export/import
Data backup
DDL generation
ER diagrams rendering
Test data generation
BLOB/CLOB support
Database objects browsing

Scrollable resultsets

The tool comes in two editions — Community and Enterprise. Enterprise Edition supports
NoSQL databases, such as MongoDB or Cassandra, persistent query manager database,
SSH tunneling, vector graphics (SVG) and a few other enterprise-level features. Note though
that you can access a MongoDB database from DBeaver Community Edition using the
respective Devart ODBC driver. For the purposes of this guide, we'll use the Community
Edition of DBeaver to retrieve data from MySQL via the Open Database Connectivity driver.

Creating an ODBC Data Source to Use MySQL Data in

DBeaver
1. Click the Start menu and select Control Panel.
2. Select Administrative Tools, then click ODBC Data Sources.
3. Click on the System DSN tab if you want to setup a DSN name for all users of the system
or select User DSN to configure DSN only for your account.
4. Click the Add button and double-click Devart ODBC Driver for MySQL in the list.
5. Give a name to your data source, e.g. MySQL_DBeaver_ODBC_Driver and enter values
for the connection parameters.
6. Click the Test Connection button to verify that you have properly configured the DSN.

When using ODBC driver for MySQL with DBeaver, SQL_WVARCHAR data types may be
displayed incorrectly in DBeaver. To prevent this, you need to set the string data types to Ansi
either in the Advanced Settings tab of the driver configuration dialog or directly in the
connection string (String Types=Ansi) — all string types will be returned as SQL_CHAR,
SQL_VARCHAR and SQL_LONGVARCHAR.

Connecting to MySQL Data from DBeaver via ODBC

Driver for MySQL
Follow the steps below to establish a connection to MySQL in DBeaver.
1. In the Database menu, select New Database Connection.

2. In the Connect to database wizard, select ODBC and click Next.

3. Enter the previously configured DSN in the Database/Schema field.

4. Click Test Connection. If everything goes well, you'll see the Success message.

Viewing MySQL Database Objects and Querying Data

You can expand out the database structure in DBeaver's Database Navigator to visualize all
the tables in MySQL database. To view and edit the data in a table, you need to right-click on
the target table name and select View data.The content of the table will be displayed in the
main workspace.

If you want to write a custom SQL query that will include only the necessary columns from the
table, you can select New SQL Editor in the SQL Editor main menu. Create your query and
run it by clicking Execute SQL Statement to view the results in the same window.

4.2 Using in Microsoft Excel

Connecting to MySQL from Microsoft Excel using ODBC

Driver for MySQL
You can use Microsoft Excel to access data from a MySQL database using ODBC

Reserved.
4.3.1 Using in SSMS

Requirements
In order to avoid incorrect integration with MS SSMS, the working environment must meet the
following conditions:
The data source must be a configured system DSN. Refer to the Driver Configuration
article to learn how to configure a System DSN
The driver, studio, and SQL Server must be of the same bitness. For example, if you are
using 64-bit SQL Server Management Studio on 64-bit Windows platform, then configure
the 64-bit version of the driver using ODBC Administrator launched from %windir%
\system32\odbcad32.exe. Otherwise, configure the driver using the 32-bit version of ODBC
Administrator - launch it from %windir%\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
ODBC Driver for MySQL and SQL Server must be installed on the same computer.
.NET Framework 4.5 must be installed on the computer.

Connecting to MySQL from SQL Server Management

Studio using ODBC Driver for MySQL
You can use the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio to connect your MySQL data to
an SQL Server instance. Linked Server is a tool of MS SQL Server that allows to execute
distributed queries to refer tables stored on non-SQL Server datbase in a single query. With
linked servers, you can execute commands against different data sources such as MySQL

and merge them with your SQL Server database. You can create a linked server with one of
these methods: by using the options in the Object Explorer or by executing stored
procedures.

Below are major advantages of using SQL Server Linked Servers to connect to MySQL:
1. The ability to connect other database instances on the same or remote server.
2. The ability to run distributed queries on heterogeneous data sources across the
organization.
3. The ability to work with diverse data sources in the same way.

How to configure a SQL Server Linked Server to connect

to MySQL
You can follow the steps to create a linked server for MySQL in SQL Server Management
Studio by using Object Explorer:
1. Start your Management Studio and choose your SQL Server instance.
2. In the Object Explorer pane, expand the Server Objects, right-click on Linked Servers
and then click on New Linked Server.
3. Configure your linked server in the dialog box:
o Give a name for your server in the Linked server field.
o Under Server type, select Other data source .
o Choose Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers in the Provider drop-down
list.
o In the Data source field, enter the name of your DSN, e.g. Devart ODBC Driver for
MySQL . Alternatively, you can input the ODBC Driver connection string in the Provider
field.

The linked server will appear under the Linked Servers in the Object Explorer Pane. You can
now issue distributed queries and access MySQL databases through SQL Server.

Retrieving Data From MySQL

Disable the Allow inprocess option of MSDASQL OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers. For
this, find the MSDASQL provider in the list of Linked Servers and double-click on it

In the appeared Provider Options window, clear the Allow inprocess checkbox:

Create a new Linked Server

Make sure to select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers and specify the
following parameters:

The MySQL tables are already available to be fetched. To query the linked server, click New
Query in the toolbar:

Enter your SQL query in the editor window and click Execute to run the query:

As a result, you can see the contents of the selected table retrieved directly from the MySQL
account you are connected to.

Attention

If the Linked Server was created with the Allow inprocess option enabled, then you should
delete this Linked Server and create it again with the Allow inprocess option disabled.

4.3.2 Troubleshooting in SSMS
When creating a linked server in SSMS, most errors happen due to security issues with
DCOM class MSDAINITIALIZE. We need to alter the DCOM Class MSDAINITIALIZE security
settings to make it work.
Following are the steps:
1. Open Component Services (Start>Run>DCOMCNFG)
2. Expand Component Services>Computers>My Computer>DCOM Config
3. From the list of DCOM components on the right side, select MSDAINITIALIZE and go to its
properties:

4. Go to the Security Tab, Choose ‘Customize’ and click on the ‘Edit’ Button:

5. Add the Domain User who is accessing the linked server and ‘Allow’ all the permissions
available (Local Launch, Remote Launch, Local Activation, Remote Activation). If you are
connecting to SQL server using SQL account, you need to provide this permission to the
account under which the SQL service is running.
6. Do this for all the 3 sections in the above screenshot.

To edit the Security settings, we followed the below steps:

1. Start > Run > Regedit
2. Find the Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AppID\{2206CDB0-19C1-
11D1-89E0-00C04FD7A829}
3. Right Click>Permissions>Advanced>Owner Tab:

4. Change the owner to Administrators.

5. Now, grant ‘Full Control’ to Administrators:

After this you should be able to edit MSDAINITIALIZE security settings .

4.4 Using in OpenOffice and LibreOffice

Connecting to MySQL from OpenOffice and LibreOffice

using ODBC Driver for MySQL
The article describes how to use Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice to access ODBC data

sources using the respective driver. You can access MySQL data from Open Office Base or
LibreOffice Base — desktop database management systems. Note that the Windows version
of OpenOffice is 32-bit, and you may get the error “The specified DSN contains an
architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application” when trying to access a data
source through a 64-bit ODBC driver. To get rid of the error message, set up the 32-bit
version of the driver.

To connect to an ODBC data source from OpenOffice or LibreOffice using our driver for
MySQL, perform the steps below:
1. Start OpenOffice or LibreOffice, click Database to open the Database Wizard.

Alternatively, you can launch the Database Wizard from OpenOffice or LibreOffice Calc,
Writer or any other tool by choosing File > New > Database.

2. In the Database Wizard dialog box, click Connect to an existing database, select
ODBC from the drop-down list, and click Next.

3. Specify the name of the data source you want to connect to. You can either type the name
of your data source into the field, e.g. ODBC Driver for MySQL, or you can click Browse,
double-click the data source you need, and then click Next.

4. If your database requires a user name, type it into the User name field. If you are
connecting to a password protected database, check the Password required field.
Alternatively, you can specify these parameters in the data source settings of your ODBC
Driver for MySQL and leave these fields empty in Database Wizard.

To test the connection to your data source, click Test Connection, input your credentials
and click OK.

If you have entered valid credentials, you will see a success message. Click Next to proceed
to the final step.
5. You can keep the default selection in this dialog box and click Finish.

You will be prompted to give a name to your new database and select the directory where you
want to store it.

6. When the database opens, you will see the list of tables from your data source diplayed in
OpenOffice or LibreOffice Base workspace. To view the data from a specific table, double-
click the table name.

7. To create an SQL query, click Queries in the Database pane, then click Create Query in
SQL View…

Enter your query in the query text box and click Run Query (F5). The date will be fetched
from the database and displayed in Open Office or LibreOffice, respectively.

4.5 Using in PHP

Connecting to MySQL from PHP using ODBC Driver for

MySQL
PHP is one of the most popular programming languages for website development. ODBC
drivers are connectors that make PHP development database agnostic — your software
written in PHP will function with any vendor's database management system. You can use
functions like odbc_exec() to prepare and execute SQL statements against any databases
like MySQL, SQLite, PostgresQL, etc.

PHP-based projects usually require a data storage, whether a traditional database or a cloud-
based database. You can establish a connection to them using ODBC interface. With our
ODBC drivers, you can access various data sources and retrieve tables and fields from a
database.

Below is a sample PHP script for accessing MySQL via ODBC. The script connects to
MySQL database and fetchs all records from a table:

Step 1: Connect to ODBC data source

The odbc_connect() function is used to connect to an ODBC data source. Note that the
function takes three mandatory parameters: the data source name, username and password.

If your database is not password-protected or doesn't require a username, leave these

parameters empty. In the following example, a connection is established using the
odbc_connect() function in PHP.
<?php
$user = "myusername";
$password = "mypassword";
$ODBCConnection = odbc_connect("DRIVER={Devart ODBC Driver for MySQL};Se

Step 2: Execute an SQL statement

If connection is successful, the odbc_exec() function is used to execute a SELECT

statement against the dept table in the autotest database.
$SQLQuery = "SELECT * FROM autotest.dept";
$RecordSet = odbc_exec($ODBCConnection, $SQLQuery);

Step 3: Print the result set

The odbc_fetch_row() function is used to return records from the result set. While
odbc_fetch_row() returns rows, the odbc_result_set() function prints a set of result in HTML
table. After all rows from the result set have been printed, the odbc_close() function closes
the connection.
while (odbc_fetch_row($RecordSet)) {
$result = odbc_result_all($RecordSet, "border=1");
}
odbc_close($ODBCConnection);
?>

You can modify this script by specifying general settings for each Devart ODBC driver to use
any of them with your PHP projects.

4.6 Using in Python

Installing the ODBC Driver for MySQL

One of the most convenient methods to connect to an external database or access cloud
data from Python is via ODBC. Devart has developed a range of ODBC Drivers for Python to
work with databases and cloud services.

If you don't have Python installed on your machine, go to the Python official website, download

the appropriate installer and run it. You will also need to install the pyodbc module — the
easiest way to do that is by using the pip install pyodbc command in the Python interactive
mode. Next, you need to download the ODBC Driver for MySQL. To use the ODBC driver as
a translation layer between the application and the database, you need to configure it by
following the installation instructions.

Connecting to MySQL from Python using ODBC Driver

for MySQL
Here’s an example to show you how to connect to MySQL via Devart ODBC Driver in Python.
First we import the pyodbc module, then create a connection to the database, insert a new
row and read the contents of the EMP table while printing each row to the Python interactive
console. To execute the script, you can type the code directly in the interactive console or add
the code to a file with the .py extension and run the file from the command prompt.

Step 1: Connect

import pyodbc
cnxn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={Devart ODBC Driver for MySQL};User ID=myuser

Step 2: Insert a row

Here's a simple example of how to execute an insert statement to test the connection to the
database. The script inserts a new record to the EMP table.
cursor = cnxn.cursor()
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, JOB, MGR) VALUES (535, 'Scot
Step 3: Execute query

The cursor.execute() function retrieves rows from the select query on a dataset. The
cursor.fetchone() function iterates over the result set returned by cursor.execute() while the
print() function prints out all records from the table to the console.
cursor = cnxn.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM EMP")
row = cursor.fetchone()
while row:
print (row)
row = cursor.fetchone()

4.7 Using in QlikView

Connecting to MySQL from QlikView using ODBC Driver

for MySQL
This tutorial describes how to connect and configure QlikView to retrieve data from MySQL for
further analysis. QlikView is a data visualization tool that connects and pulls data from
different popular databases like MySQL, MongoDB, Oracle, SQL Server, Postgres, etc. to
present it in a single view. The business intelligence platform identifies relationships in your
data and discovers patterns and opportunities to support your decision making.

QlikView supports the ODBC connectivity interface for communication with external data
sources. An ODBC data source must be configured for the database you want to access.
You can create an ODBC connection using a DSN during the ODBC driver installation or
later.

To connect to an ODBC data source from QlikView using our driver for MySQL, perform the
steps below:
1. Open the QlikView client application and click File > New. Close the Getting Started
wizard and open File > Edit Script (CTRL+E).

2. In the Data tab, choose ODBC from the Database drop-down and click Connect. Select
the Data Source you created earlier, type in the User ID and Password if your database is
password-protected. You can test the connection by choosing Test Connection. The
Connection Test succeeded message should appear. Click OK to connect to your data
source.

3. To retrieve the data from your data source, you can enter an SQL query and press F5. You
will be suggested to choose fields to be displayed.

4. Alternatively, you can click Select, and QlikView will show you the database structure
window where you can compose a SELECT statement for the data to be fetched. You can
choose a different database from the database drop-down list. Select the necessary tables
and fields. You can retrieve date from multiple tables and fields by selecting them and
clicking Add. When you are ready with your SELECT statement, click OK. You will get
back to the main script editor with your SQL statement. Press F5 to execute the script and
select the fields to be displayed in QlikView.

5. Once the data has been fetched, you can choose a table layout to present the data in a

table. Choose Layout > New Sheet Object > Table Box. Select the fields to be added to
the tablebox and click OK.

4.8 Using in SSIS

SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is a component of SQL Server that is designed to
perform various data migration tasks. When using Devart ODBC Driver for MySQL as a
translation layer between the data source and SSIS, the driver and SSIS communicate via
Microsoft ODBC version 3.x.

Note that when you extract data from an ODBC data source using the SQLExecDirect
function, an issue may occur: SSIS expects the 2.x version of ODBC behavior, while the
ODBC driver continues to fetch data from a data source via ODBC version 3.x.
To prevent any issues when using SQLExecDirect, you should force the 2.x version of ODBC
behavior in the DSN settings: open the Advanced Settings tab and select Ver 2.x from the
ODBC Behavior dropdown.
