Hi,

From last one month I am in search for DNN works with MySQL but from various forums, blogs from google I came to know that DNN does not support MySQL.

But I have got only one link from codeplex site for MySQL Client providers for DNN.

https://dnnmysql.codeplex.com/

which says DNN allows to work on MySQL.

I have tried this but that will not work for me.

What is your opinion on this URL. 

I want reply from Scott & MVP's of DNN.

Please reply

You may use your MySQL connection string for your custom modules, but for DNN I strongly suggest staying with MS SQL, since you would need a custom database provider for each module. Free SQL Express is fine for most small and medium sites, even with dozens of websites in a single installation and dozens of databases on a single SQL server.
