Hi,

I try to connect my c# app to mysql(.net connector) using ssl. Following the .Net connector, i installed Openssl(.msi) on my computer as well. i have the .pfx file and the password. this is my connection string:

server = "hostname";
        database = "sqlserver";
        uid = "sqlserver";
        password = "password";
        cert_file = "client-cert.pfx";      
        string connectionString;
        connectionString = "SERVER=" + server + ";" + "DATABASE=" + database + ";" + "UID=" + uid + "; CertificateFile=" + cert_file + "; CertificatePassword=admin; SslMode=Required";

and this is my error message:


System.IO.IOException: Received an unexpected EOF or 0 bytes from the transport stream. at System.Net.FixedSizeReader.ReadPacket(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count) at System.Net.Security.SslState.StartReadFrame(Byte[] buffer, Int32 readBytes, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.Security.SslState.StartReceiveBlob(Byte[] buffer, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.Security.SslState.ForceAuthentication(Boolean receiveFirst, Byte[] buffer, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.Security.SslState.ProcessAuthentication(LazyAsyncResult lazyResult) at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.StartSSL() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.Open() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.Driver.Open() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.Driver.Create(MySqlConnectionStringBuilder settings) at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.CreateNewPooledConnection() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.GetPooledConnection() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.TryToGetDriver() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.GetConnection() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection.Open() at

apart from the openssl installation wizard, do i have to add anything to visual studio? even when i uninstall openssl, the error remains the same. so i guess visual studio does not recognize it. hope someone can help. thank you
