Has anyone written a DEFINITIVE method for connecting your Ruby on Rails
application in a Windows environment to a REMOTE MySQL database?
I keep receiving the error:
"Lost connection to MySQL server during query".
I've seen a lot of discussion about this, but nothing that seems definitive. I've installed a fresh copy of Ruby 1.8.4 and Rails 1.1.4, but cannot get Ruby to connect.
I have confirmed this is related to authentication. If I remove the
password from the MySQL account, I do not receive the error. If I set
the password with either OLD_PASSWORD(' ') or PASSWORD(' ') however, I
receive the error.
