QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:
Unable to connect to database!
No error type from QSqlError? Strange...
couldn't open db
last time i got that error was when i first set up a frontend only box, and
i learned to edit the mysql.txt files.. i edited them and did everything
else i could find in the docs.
everything related to mysql is installed. it worked before so i have no idea
why it isn't working now
