Can't get started -

Installing via Fedora 29, When I run the application the first time i get the following error. I am pretty limited in Linux ... If Anyone has any ideas please let me know.. I have tried 3-5 times even rebuilding my laptop. still the same thing.

"Error during connection to database: Can not load default MySQL library ("libmysqlclient.so.16" or "libmysqlclient.so"). Check your installation."

Thanks and 73

Hi!

Open command console and give:
sudo dnf install community-mysql-libs

It might say that it is installed, or installs it

To see that it can be found give;
whereis libmysqlclient

You can then give
ls -l /here/the/result/of/previous/command

For me these give (do not care about finish text. It says it is already installed):

[saku@hamtpad ~]$ sudo dnf install community-mysql-libs

Paketti community-mysql-libs-5.7.23-1.fc28.x86_64 on jo asennettu, ohitetaan.
Riipuvuudet selvitetty.
Ei mitään tehtävää.
Valmis!
[saku@hamtpad ~]$ whereis libmysqlclient
libmysqlclient: /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so
[saku@hamtpad ~]$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so
