 I tried to use OGR Converter plugin to save a shapefile in MySQL. There is
 no way to make it work. I Tried different syntaxes for mysql connection,
 but no way. This one:
 MySQL:mydb,host=localhost,user=myuser,password=mypasswd,port=3306
 takes few time to execute before "Could not establish connection" error
 appears.
 Anyway I'm able to run successfully ogr2ogr.exe (WIN) on command line and
 it works: syntax for cli is (as in
 http://www.bostongis.com/PrinterFriendly.aspx?content_name=ogr_cheatsheet):
 ogr2ogr -f "MySQL"
 MYSQL:"mydb,host=localhost,user=myuser,password=mypasswd,port=3306" -nln
 "tmp" -a_srs "EPSG:32638" "path/to/shapefile.shp"
