Database not being created

Hi all I have been trying for hours now to get a MySQL database to work in my project. Only problem is I am unable to create the database. I don't get any errors anything, nothing seems to happen. Everything compiles fine but no databases are created. Qt tells me that I have all the database drivers i need...

I have: ("QSQLITE", "QMYSQL3", "QMYSQL", "QODBC3", "QODBC")

The code that I'm using to try and create my database is:

Code:

---

QSqlDatabase db;
    db.addDatabase("QMYSQL");
    db.setDatabaseName("test");
    if(!db.open()){
        message.information(this, "Error", "Database not opened");
    }

---

What am I doing wrong? This is all beginning to annoy me now!!

Thanks for your time and trouble. Any help would be much appreciated :)

Two things:

1. You need to provide the Mysql plugin with a host name, user name, and password. From the docs:
   Code:

   ---

   QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
        db.setHostName("bigblue");
        db.setDatabaseName("flightdb");
        db.setUserName("acarlson");
        db.setPassword("1uTbSbAs");
        bool ok = db.open();

   ---

2. The plugin will not create the Mysql database if it does not exist.
