Accessing Remote MySQL Database
Is it possible to access remote MySQL databases?
I manage several sites and I will soon be building a tool that can track all of them, and it would be really convenient if I could somehow access all of the databases from one remote site.

Accessing A Mysql Database On A Remote Server
i would like to know how to connect to a remote mysql server which is on linux from a windows system.

Accessing Remote Data Folder
I have MySql 4.0.17 server on my machine. My data folder is on a network drive. Recently I installed MySql 4.0.17 on a different machine, changed the my.ini file to point to the same remote data folder and restarted the MySql. I get the following error- "Could not start the MySql Server on local computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly". So I copied the remote data folder onto my local machine and changed the my.ini accordingly, it is working perfectly fine. The storage engine is Innodb. Am I missing something here.

Accessing MySQL Database.
I have recently installed MySQL 5.0.27 / PHP 5.2.0 / Apache 2.2.3 on an XP os. I created an empty database via the MySQL command line which is visible when I type SHOW DATABASES at the mysql prompt. I have changed my root password which works OK. I set up the password to the empty db by: GRANT ALL ON database name.* TO username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password' To access the db, when I type : mysql -D dbname -u username -p I do not get a prompt to enter the password.

MySQL Slow To Connect To Remote Database
I was running a PHP/MySQL web site with the database on the local web server. I needed to move the database off the webserver (located in the firewall DMZ) and onto its own machine (behind the firewall on our private network) Now when I run my web site it goes really slow. I ran mysql from the command line on the web server and connected through to the database machine behind the firewall using webserver:/# mysql -h 192.168.1.7 -u www-data -p After I enter the password, it takes around 5-7s before I see the mysql> prompt. Is mysql trying to do reverse dns on the IP address and timing out? I added the machine details to /etc/hosts so it would be recognized but no improvement. Or do I have something wrong with my mysql configuration?

Trouble With Accessing Database -- Too Many Rows?
The database is used for an online game. One of the tables keeps track of all the lands in the game. There are 7 continents, each with a different set number of regions (239 in total). Each region has 625 sectors, and each sector contains 25 lands. The total number of rows in the database is 3,734,375. I recently populated the table with the necessary rows. The table comes out to over 93MB. I've already modified the structure of the table to maximize the space usage. I had no problems accesses my database before populating the world. However, now that I have, I can't access the database as a whole. I can send queries to select certain tables (such as the user table), and even check out the individual table structures in phpMyAdmin. But it locks up every time I try to connect to the database directly (ie selecting the database using phpMyAdmin or connecting through the game). I suspect it's because of the huge amount of data in the database. I tried to send a query to delete all the records in the land table, but it doesn't go through and just locks up.

MySQL Remote Backups - No Access To FTP Or Remote Command Line
I have a mySQL database located on a remote host's server. I would like to schedule a task on my local Windows computer to retrieve a backup/dump of this remote database. I have contacted my host, and they indicated that the server is only open to the Internet via mySQL. Therefore, even if I did have access to that server's command line (which I don't) to create dumps via mysqldump, I would not be able to retrieve via FTP. Does anybody have any ideas as to how I can generate backup files from my local computer through a local command-line interface? I have done it through a GUI (DBTools), but I would like to have it done via DOS batch, so that I can schedule it. Does anyone know of any mysql backup GUIs with command line switches? Or can somebody recommend an alternate means of getting a local backup?

How Can I "see" A Table In A Database On A Remote MySQL Server After Creating It
I used the following SQL to create a new table in a database on a remote MySQL server by copying one already there. I know the table exists SOMEWHERE in cyberspace. I can read its data, write to it, delete from it. But I cannot see it. The only way I know it exists is by running this SQL from Access 97 pass through query: SELECT ALL new_tbl.name FROM new_tbl The database resides on a MySQL server that was created with a single table (named test) in it for testing purposes. I ran the following SQL to create another copy of the table in the same database named: new_tbl CREATE TABLE new_tbl SELECT * FROM test; I cannot see the new table in the Access 97 database window under the Tables Tab. Anybody know how to overcome this? Its a severe drawback to programming efforts not to KNOW what tables are in your database.

Accessing Dev.mysql.com
I'm trying to download MySQL4.1 from the MySQL site and when I try and go to the download section on the site it either fails or, if it loads, the "pick a mirror site" links always fail. By "fail" I mean that it doesn't manage to retrieve the requested page, either sticking on "waiting for dev.mysql.com" or "connecting to dev.mysql.com" in the status line of the browser, eventually giving up with an "operation timed out" error message. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me? - this has been ongoing for the past couple of days now. Incidentally, I need a version of MySQL that can handle subqueries yet I'm still using glibc-2.2.5-40 and Redhat 7.3 (upgrading simply isn't an option right now) - can anyone suggest a stable sub-version of 4.1 that fits this criteria?

Remote Table In A Database
is it possible to create remote virtual tables in mysql? By that I mean if it is possible to define a table, which actually resides on a remote mysql server, but which can be accessed and addressed as if the table would be on the local database. My intention is to move one table to a remote host, but to be able to address the table as if it was still on the same machine. So for example: SELECT m.header, m.body, m.from, m.to FROM users u, messages m WHERE u.login=m.login; would still work, even though the table "users" resides in the database "moon" on a different host, than the table "message", which resides on the localhost in the database "alltables". The problem I'm trying to solve is: I have to webapplications, which both have a table, which stores login information. Those tables have to be combined into one and have to be put on one of the hosts only. One of the application will access the remote user table for logins. Since many of the SELECTS of this application contain joins like the example above I'm looking for a way in which I do not have to modify the selects but can move the login table to a different machine.

Triggers To A Remote Database
We make use of a PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) and system to store DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) images (like CT scans, MR images etc.) in our Oncology Center. This PACS system uses mysql as it's native database, in which it stores certain data as date and time of the examination, it uses InnoDB tables. We are building another application around it, which will use data from the PACS tables and will hold additional data in a seperate database in it's own tables. Every study has it's own unique identifier which is stored in the PACS database. Additional data is stored in the additional database, under the same unique identifier to be able to keep track of the data and link it to each other. Now I would like to know if it is possible to add a trigger to the PACS database which will delete the related information in the additional database if a record in the PACS database is dropped. This trigger will have to delete the records in the additional tables before dropping the data in it's own database, so we can maintain a more compact database and don't store data which we cannot link to the PACS system anymore.

Once the unit logs onto the server how might I code it to access the data area and post its reading. Also can this even be done. I mean does the microcontroller have to have a special database driver to access the remote database?

Remote Database Issue

Web server 192.168.99.80-82 Joomla is specifically at 192.168.99.82 MySQL server 192.168.99.90 I used MySQL Administrator to setup user account which I will call test. Then I right clicked the user and selected Add host from which user can connect. I then typed in 192.168.99.82. I had issues so I also added .80. I then created a database called Joomla and then gave user test full rights to this database. I also opened port 3306 on software firewall. Then I shut off firewall. Tried to install Joomla, but I get error when connecting to database. I loaded MySQL Administrator on web server and I am able to connect to MySQL.

Connecting To Remote Database
I'm using MAMP on a MacBook Pro. The only database connection I've been able to write that doesn't return an error message is on the database "test" that's installed by default: $link = mysql_connect ("localhost" , "USERNAME", "") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db ("test", $link) or die(mysql_error()); ...where USERNAME is a username I created and accidentally applied to all my databases. Anyway, I assumed I could use the database "test," since I can at least connect to it. But my queries all display error messages, even after I copy the tables they reference into the database test. Finally, I wrote a very simple query: $Geog = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM gw_geog_gw")); But I still get the following error message: Quote: Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /Users/MyName/Sites/Geobop/Files/World.php on line 7 Does that mean I'm not even connected to the database "test"?

Accessing A Mysql DB Remotely

It will not allow me to connect to the DB because I am using the following connection string: mysql_connect("localhost","*****","*****"); mysql_select_db("******") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error()); I know that the problem here is that I'm trying to connect to 'localhost' when the actual DB resides elsewhere. The question I'm asking is how to find out how to connect to my DB. Is it just mysql.mydomain.com instead of localhost or what?

Connect To Database From A Remote Source
I own a website and plan on running multiple message boards on it...the problem is that I would like a database per board...however my host only gives 1 database....unless I want to pay an extaordinary amount of money for more. So I have used my PC as a webserver before without any problems and in fact ran a pretty big board off it with php, mysql, phpmyadmin installed. So my thought was to use a couple of databases off my PC to help run the new boards. I have created the database...but I'm having trouble with the board connecting. I'm sure that it's some kind of permission that needs to be inserted for the remote host to connect to my databases.

Query Database From Remote Location.
I have a database sitting on my db server, which is part of my office network (which has a domain controller). Access to the outside world is via a router, which is well locked down. Currently, remote users access the database front end via Terminal Services but this is only a method of accessing an application stored and running on the Database Server. What I want to do is allow access to the database from a server, which is located in another building (another part of the country). This is essentially an inter/intranet server. What is the best way for me to get this external server to be able to query my database server?
