G''day everyone, I''ve got Rails up and running, but am having trouble finding a stable MySQL client for OSX. I was looking at the ''Creating a weblog in 15 minutes'' screencast from rubyonrails.org - what MySQL client is David using? I''ve found the MySQL clients (Administrator / Query Browser) to be highly unstable and rather pathetic under OSX. If David is indeed running Admin/QB I''ll cry myself into a slab of VB. Cheers, Stephen -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Hi, He''s using CocoaMySQL editor.

Try PHPMyAdmin .. http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php It''s a php web app so you''ll need a php enabled web server to run it. Lot''s of features.

I don''t know which one he is using, but i really like the MySQL client from Navicat, as this one is very stable and has some advanced features other clients do not offer. the one, which i like the most is the option to tunnel the connection through a ssh connection. this way, you do not have to allow mysql connection from other servers than localhost, but still be able to work on the servers database. there is also a PostgreSQL version available. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
If you get CocoaMySQL, be aware that the main version you find out there (0.5) does not support the newer password scheme of 4.1+. So if you''re using a newer install of mySQL, grab the CocoaMySQL version here: http://cocoamysql.sourceforge.net/beta/CocoaMySQL_0.7b2_v41.zip There''s another beta there that doesn''t have the password hack.

I''ll download the latest beta and check it out :) Navicat looks pretty good, although if I spend any money on software I might have to convert to PostgreSQL because its my preferred platform. I noticed they have a pgsql client which looks cool.. Thanks for your replies everyone...! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
I have used Navicat but didn''t like it. CocoaMySQL is very good, you can get it from sourceforge.net. I also use the Query Browser available for free in the download section of MySQL.com pretty sweet since it has the help built right in the client, although it is a working progress; but you should check it out.

There''s also YourSQL which is pretty good, and seems too have been updated more recently. http://yoursql.ludit.it/ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Navicat is the only tool I will use - Mac or PC. A DB connection tool is something you use every day, break down and pay for a good one. Cocoamysql and yoursql are garbage to me. -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I''ve used all three, and paid for Navicat. I honestly prefer CocoaMysql. Jamie On 27 Feb 2006, at 07:53, subimage interactive wrote:> Navicat is the only tool I will use - Mac or PC.

ouch, i had to be the guy that copies a response with the digest subject line. :( sorry. here''s my reply again: CocoaMySQL is definitely the way to go. Great app. Unfortunately, it''s somewhat complicated to find the correct version to use. Make sure you get version CocoaMySQL v0.7b2 based on official SMySQL framework (http://cocoamysql.sourceforge.net/beta.php). the current stable version 0.5 does not work with MySQL4.1., the latest beta does (however, no support for new new password encryption) also, stay away from the forked version by Stuart Glenn (v41 v0.7b2), which enables new pw encryption in 4.1 -- it is very buggy.
