Description:
I have Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation x64 on my server and I cannot change it.
I need to use application which works only with x86 MySQL ODBC Connector (it does not work with x64 ODBC Connector).
I installed Connector/ODBC 5.3.4 x86 but I cannot chose database in ODBC.
Is it possible to solve this problem?

Hello Mariusz Bednarz,

Thank you for the bug report.
I suspect that these issues are observed when connection credentials are wrong etc, and sometimes the workaround is just to type the database name manually and click "OK", it should work.
Also, to select 32-bit ODBC drivers you should run odbcad32.exe from WINDOWS\SYSWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
Could you please provide more information on this such as exact steps you tried, dummy application etc to repeat this issue at our end and/or screenshots to confirm the issue that you are facing? 

Thanks,
Chiranjeevi.
