Crash on opening HeidiSQL after failing to connect to MySQL server error

User, date	Message
Written by fusioned 2 years ago Category: General 10 posts since Tue, 16 Nov 10	I tend to connect to a number of sources - some on the network, and some over the net via PuTTY's SSH tunnelling. For the latter I route via localhost, but sometimes it is not always what I want to access. Today, I'm having issues getting to the main Heidi window so I can change source - on startup, I receive the 'SQL Error (2003): can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) This is all fine and well - in the past I would simply click OK, and choose a new source. However, instead I now receive the madexception window with EAccessViolation reported. I have tried to update to the newest nightly build, but that does not change this issue. The full bugreport below.
