Pretty sure author of this app has abandoned it.

do you have any special characters in your DB password? Looking at prev issues, special characters are causing the break. No update on a fix though.

[mcroni]

@rugys yeah i have special chars like @

Can confirm that * also seems to be a breaking character. I'll be sticking to alphanumeric from now on.
