Cannot connect to mysql from visual studio 2015

Question

So I have already spent about 2 days trying fix this. I have succeeded in fixing this on my workplace pc and can\'t get it to work on my home pc. I have read about a dozen S

Answer 1

It works for me. I have Visual Studio 2015, and just installed latest version of connector: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/visualstudio/

Read this more carefully: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql-for-visual-studio/en/visual-studio-news-1-2-4.html

They mention that version of "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC" could be a problem. Wrong is that they say VS2015 ships with version 5, but I have version 4 installed with VS2015 Enterprise final.
