app will connect to mysql db on local, but not on the server it was moved to
I have a vb.net app built in visiual studio 2005 and this app hit's the mysql db fine on my local machine. I put this application into test on a microsoft 2003 server and then was moved to another server for specific reasons and worked fine on the other server. When the app got moved to another microsft 2003 server, I keep getting a 'Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledE xception' was thrown' everytime the application tries to connect to the mysql db. The drivers on the server are odbc 3.51 and 5. Also there is no dns. what could be the issue. If you need sample code or anything from me just ask.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

the database is on a separate server, so it points to the same server. I will find out about the mysql client.
ASKER
there are multiple clients I believe mysql5, 5.1, and 5.2. the mysql.data.dll file in my bin is version 1.0.10.1.

I have to have the tech update the files in test. I added error handling, so I will know in a little while, what the issue was specifically.
ASKER
the exception is not being thrown while connecting to the database. I don't know what else the issue could be.
ASKER
the issue wasn't the database, it was something else. I am awarding you credit for helping.
2. Do you have mysql client component installed in the server where your application is running? You can download it from mysql web site
