Additional installation

MySQL requires MyODBC version 3.51.x or Connector/ODBC 5.1 installed on the computer where the RapidiConnector is installed. The RapidiConnector must be installed on a windows computer for now. The MySQL Server can be running under Linux.

The MySQL Server should be set up to use either InnoDB and BDB databases, so that transactions are enabled.

GRANT ALL ON *.* to “myuser”@”A” IDENTIFIED BY “mypassword”
where “A” is the address of the computer where the RapidiConnector is installed.
