DBDesigner 4.0.5.4 Beta

[MariusDumitrache]

Hello,
I worked a lot with DBDesigner 4 under Windows, but now I want to move to Linux.
On my computer I've installed Suse 9.3, with Mysql 4.1.12 and DBDesigner 4. The problem apear when I want to connect to Mysql server from DBDesigner. It Gives me the following error:"Connection to database failed. Unable to Load libmysqlclient.so".
I've checked in /usr/lib, and there is libmysqlclient.so.
Can someone give me a hint how can I resolve this problem
Thanks,
Marius Dumitrache

If the folder where you installed DBDesigner is /usr/local/bin/DBDesigner4 - then:

cd /usr/local/bin/DBDesigner4/Linuxlib
ln -s libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0 libmysqlclient.so

'libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0' should be the name of a real file in the folder. You are creating 'libmysqlclient.so', a symbolic link to that file.

Hope this helps,

Jim
