Description:
I'm using uwp to connect my sql server.
But I can't open it. In dbForge or Heidi SQL, the same server and uid works.

public static MySqlConnection CreateMySqlConnection()
        {
            string strConn = String.Format("server={0}; uid={1}; pwd={2}; database={3}",
                strServer, strUserID, strPassword, strDatabase);
            MySqlConnection conn = null;
            try
            {
                conn = new MySqlConnection();
                conn.ConnectionString = strConn;
                conn.Open();
            }
            catch (MySqlException myex)
            {
               
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {

            }

            return conn;
        }

How to repeat:
Build a uwp project, using the above code

Mysql 6.10.5
windows 10 16299
vs 15.5.3

Hello Tuomas,

Thank you for the bug report.
As per internal discussion with developers and they confirm that UWP is not supporting.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

Thanks,
Chiranjeevi.

I'm very upset to hear the news.

Do you have a plan to publish a mysql version for uwp? We(uwp developers) really need it. Thanks,

The InnerException indicates that you may be running into this problem: https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/19783

If so, it looks like you may have to wait for .NET Core 2.1.
