DBeaver Forum

Hi Serge,
I'm trying to use MariaDB with DBeaver on my Mac. I'm able to connect to the db without issue, but I do have a question regarding one thing in DBeaver. There is an option when setting up the DB Connection for "Local Client". I click on Browse, and I choose the path for mariadb, but that doesn't seem to be correct.

When doing the same for MySQL, I get the proper MySQL client name. Any idea how to properly set this for mariadb or should I be using the MySQL client here?

Thanks!

You can use MySQL client for MariaDB.

Local client is used only for backup/restore functions.

Thanks. I'll try downloading MySQL Workbench to see if that takes care of the issue.
