If you select the New Database connection from a combobox that u have connected via the DatabaseExplorerUI.connect feature and select the MySql driver it has the field entry radio button checked but the Direct URL entry fields displayed on the screen. You have to select the Direct URL entry button and re-select the field entry radio button to actually get the field entry items to display on the screen. This does not happen if you select the driver in the services tab and right click and get the screen up that way.
This should get fixed when we implement the New Connection dialog. Rob, can you attach this issue to the New Connection umbrella?
Reassigned to new owner.
It seems it's works for me in NB6.8
