Cannot Connect mySQL to UiPath - Error : Bad Handshake

Hi,

I want to connect to mysql to uipath without actually installing the mysql server on my laptop. I installed mysql odbc connector 8.0.23 and added a system dsn in data source administrator. Upon entering the credentials and testing the connection, I am getting an error “Bad Handshake”.

Can someone help me figure out what was wrong? MySQL server version is 5.1.69

Hi @Kristine_Ann_Garlan ,

It seems to be a driver issues more than an UiPath activity issue

Please check the following topics:

Hope this helps
Best regards,
Marius
