Here is the code that called the error:

    student studentObject = new student();
    studentObject.first_name = txtFirstName.Text;
    studentObject.middle_name = txtMiddleName.Text;
    studentObject.last_name = txtLastName.Text;
    studentObject.Save();

That is a bit tricky. This exceptions happens with the current version of mysql.connector.net.

Normally an exception would be trown at this point, but the connector seems to have an NullReferenceException itself before it can throw the actual exception.

The "real" exception could be anything from "DUPLICATE KEY ..." to "Field XYZ does not have a default value" or "You have an error in your SQL Syntax near ..."

I haven't had time yet to figure out why this happens (debug the Connector.Net or try a newer one) but in the mean time I would suggest you do the following as I do:

Download unix tools for windows: http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/ and put them in the path (we need the tail command) Configure mysql to write a query.log to c:\temp

[mysqld]
log=c:/temp/query.log

Start a console and type

tail -f c:\temp\query.log

Now you see every statement that is executed against your local database and if you get the NullReferenceException copy the last statement form the console window to a mysql query browser instance and execute it there.

Hope that helps, I will update this post if I figured out how to fix this issue.
