Install the last mySql Connector for DotNet.

Download MySql Connector 6.3

When build the project make sure that the connector dlls are copied in the output directory.
(In the solution explorer, open References tree.
select the mysql dll and with the left mouse button select property.
In the Property set the "Copy locally" filed on True )

That's all :)
