Hi Radek,
At the beginning when I wanted to test the demo project, I had encountered the same problem because I had not installed MySql on the station.
But if I well understand, you have install MySql on your Proview station so maybe you had a problem during MySql install.
After MySql install, you must be to define the Proview access as following (use terminal):
1: mysql -u root -p ........... login 'MySql' with root rights
2: GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'pwrp'@'localhost'; ........... declare 'pwrp' as user with all privileges
3: \q ........... quit 'MySql' config
note: root password = pwrp
Maybe you can try to uninstall and install again MySql5.
In my case I have realized the video tutorial with Linux Mint 17.3 + Proview5.4 + MySql5 and all run fine.
Maybe Claes can add some others advices about your problem.
I hope you will solve it easily.
