Can't connect to MySQL Community Server 5.6 from CF11

I'm trying to connect to MySQL Community Server version 5.6 from Cold Fusion 11. If I choose the DataDirect driver, I get an error message stating that the driver does not support Community Server. So I choose the MySQL5 driver and I am able to verify the connection from the CF Admin page. However, whenever I try to run any queries using the verified datasource, I get a "500 - internal server error".

Is there an updated driver I can use? Does that driver support Community Server?

    Did you ever figure this out? I just started looking at upgrading from CF10 to CF11 and this issue has me at a dead stop.

    Have either of you turned on "Enable Robust Exception Handling" in CF Administrator so a more detailed error message can be viewed?  If you are using IIS, have you set the Error Pages settings to show "Detailed errors" so it will pass through ColdFusion errors?
