I have installed a Windows computer having MariaDB installed, its ip is 192.168.1.200, now I'm trying to connect through another computer on the same LAN, the ODBC connector on Data Sources (Windows) test connection successfuly so driver is working fine...

Tried this example to test the remote connection:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);

    QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QODBC3");
    db.setDatabaseName("Driver={MySQL ODBC 8.0 Unicode Driver};Database=db0");
    db.setPort(3306);                                     //Update: this has no effect
    db.setHostName("192.168.1.200");   //Update: this has no effect
    db.setUserName("root");         
    db.setPassword("$$Mas7eR");
    
    if (!db.open()) qDebug() << db.lastError().text();
    
    else {
        qDebug() << "Success!";
        db.close();
    }
    return a.exec();
}

Output is:
[MySQL][ODBC 8.0(w) Driver] Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) QODBC3: Unable to connect"

I'm a bit confused why is it claiming for localhost if I setup 192.168.1.200
Any help?.. Thanks so much in advance.

Update :
I have noticed that setPort and setUserName had no effect, is more like those values are being overwritten from somewhere... that's why output points to localhost rather than server ip.... I say this because I have tested the same example on the server itself with loopback and worked, then changed the setHostName to 10.0.1.1 (a random ip) and worked again.. ...
