New database not creating when connecting to database server (1 reply)

Hi

I am new to MySql and am using MySql Sever 5.6 with Visual Studio 2010. I was running previous version to this a few days back and in that from Visual studio connect to mysql server and enter a new database name i used to get a message that dababase does not exists and would offer to create a new database. But 5.6 this does not happen and I get this error message.

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Authentication to host 'localhost' for user 'root' using method 'mysql_native_password' failed with message: Unknown database 'testDB'
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

As anything changed or any setting needs to be done. I am trying to do Code First MVC base on https://blogs.oracle.com/MySqlOnWindows/entry/building_an_mvc_3_application and the dababase is not getting created and am suspecting that this is causing the problem.

thanks
