When modifying Connect
l If local MySQL is removed from an installation, the DB Configuration page will offer
additionally the Microsoft SQL Server db type with respective default values.
l If local MySQL is added to an installation, the usual MySQL Configuration page with
default values will be displayed.
If the user has installed the Installer Supplied MySQL and then switches to an external
Microsoft SQL by using the Server Configuration Tool, the supplied MySQL cannot be switched
off. By design the installer adds a service dependency between Connect Server and the
supplied MySQL service.
Note
The Microsoft SQL selection capability will be available only with 1.6 version and
upwards.
To remove this dependency the user needs to do the following
1. Have a foreign Microsoft SQL running, ready for use with Connect Server.
2.
Use the Server Configuration Tool "Database Connection preferences" on page306 to
switch the database to Microsoft SQL.
3. Re-start the Connect Server Service, so that the modifications become active.
4. Counter check that everything is working properly with Microsoft SQL.
5. Open a command-line prompt with full administration rights.
6. Enter the command sc config OLConnect_Server depend= /. This removes the
dependency.
Please be aware: The key word depend must be followed immediately by the equal sign,
but between the equal sign and the forward slash there must be a space.

to-add-dependency-on-a-windows-service-after-the-service-is-installed#228326.
7. After the dependency has been removed, it is possible to stop the supplied MySQL
service (OLConnect_MySQL).
