failed to connect to mysql database after I upgrade the mariadbclient library inside the msys2

[asmwarrior]

Hi, I have recently update the msys2 to the latest version, and soon I found that soci failed to connect to the mysql library.

Here is the details:

soci+mariadbclient 3.3.8-1 failed to connect to a mysql database, while it works with 3.1.13(replace the libmariadb.dll with old one works) · Issue #19861 · msys2/MINGW-packages

Maybe, this is caused that the mariadbclient 3.3.8 has the different interface with the mariadbclient 3.1.13.

Any idea how to fix this issue? Thanks.

This looks like mariadb installation problem, i.e. I'm pretty sure that just using its C API directly would fail too. IMO it's not a SOCI problem at all, so closing.

Sorry about the noise.
