MySQL database

Question

Hello,

Forgive my ignorance on this subject, I am definitely not a database person but I'm the closest thing our company has to one. I've setup a 2nd Adaxes server in our environment for failover and want to configure a central logging server. I've followed the help article but no matter what am getting a Named Pipe Services error 40 when attemping to connect to our MySQL server. I have an empty database setup and created a user just for the Adaxes service with full permissions on the database but it just won't connect. For troubleshooting I've also tried a user that has full access to the entire server without any luck either.

The help article specifically says MS SQL or Azure SQL so is it safe to assume that our MySQL database is not going to work? We don't have a MS SQL server and certainly won't be setting one up just for this so it would be real bummer if the software doesn't support MySQL or MariaDB.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Andrew,

Unfortunately, there is no possibility to use MySQL as an external database to store Adaxes logs. Only MS SQL and Azure SQL databases can be used.
