Re: DNN 4.07 Using Mysql? 

you will need a MYSQL dataprovider for the core framework and all modules used. AFAIK there is no one available, therefore I suggest to use free MS SQL Express database.

Re: DNN 4.07 Using Mysql? 

If you really must use MySQL, there is a MySQL Data Provider available from SnowCovered that is compatible with DotNetNuke 4.0.3.

I don't know if this is supported for 4.0.7, but I have worked with the developer of this project to create a custom DotNetNuke data provider for a special application.  I can vouch for them.  If they don't support an upgrade, you might be able to contract with them for an upgrade, or sell you the source code.  You'd have to take on the task of bringing the provider up to a current version, but a good bit of the work may already have been done for you.

Re: DNN 4.07 Using Mysql? 

It's interesting to see the interest for other data providers such as MySQL has dropped off like this.  Is it because the demand is not there or there are technical difficulties implementing non-mssql data providers.  I understand that there is a commercial Oracle data provider available but in a hosted environment it is just not feasible.  MySQL on the otherhand is available in pretty much most hosting providers.

It is not a technical problem. I think the problem is that you can get cheap DNN hosting using SQL Server Express. If this did not exist then I think there would be more support for a MySQL provider.
