MYSQL :: Changes Made In One Connection Does Not Reveal In Another Connection At Once.

Connection
I just installed mysql 4.0 .There were many problems
with upgrading from 3.23 to 4.0 so I deleted 3.23 and
made a fresh start with 4.0. Everything works fine now
but the only problem to connect to the server is via
the /usr/local/mysql/bin directory. Is there a way to
connect if I am root.

Connection
I have installed mysql by yum (on fedora core 3): yum install mysql
And I want connected me, I have the following message:

ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local Mysql server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

Connection
I have a mysql database running on my server and i want to let someone else connect to it.

Using cPanel and WHM on a Linux box.

This is the error we are getting on the other site:

Unable to connect to database server!
Host 'server14.******.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server

How can i allow there server to connect?

Php Connection
I have installed mysql 4.1 and things are working. I select the program from the start menu and it takes me straight to the command prompt where I type in the password I set upon installation. When connecting to mysql server using php you have to specify:
$host = "";
$user = "";
$pass = "";
$connect = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);

The problem is that I don't know what's my user? or my host for that matter. I assume since its installed locally the $host would be 'localhost' but how do I find out my $user? Or can I just simply type in a $host and $pass alone? and leave out the $user? While I am here, can someone point me to some really good mysql tutorials. Not the ones mixed with php, just plain mysql.

Connection
The database has already been made and is installed in http://TL28serv and has a dsn of "warehouse".

It says to connect to the database you need to use the following connection string:

myconn.open"warehouse","IWSDstudent","assign2"
(this is assuming that the connection object you create is called myconn).

Does any one know how to create this connection object? and how to use the connection string?

Connection
Yesterday I was able to connect and work with the database.

Today, I cannot connect. I do not remember changing anything.

I repaired Apache2. Do no know if it needed a repair.

Reinstalled mysql. Seemed to be my problem.

When trying to open mysql@localhost, I receive an error Access denied for
the user name@localhost Using password

I reentered the password.

Still no success.

What am I missing??

The icon for Apache is green.

The Icon for mysql admin is green.

Connection
I've downloaded mysql and php to my computer. I am also running the latest version of apache. But im really confused how to get mysql to work with my domain. When i use the php script to connect to mysql using localhost as the "hostname" everthing works fine, but thats just looking at it on my local computer. How do I do it for my site that is actually on the web.

Can I still use localhost as the host name or do I have to get another one somehow? If so how do I set it up?

Connection
I keep getting connection lost errors from a DOS windows mysql client
on Windows 2000 from which I access a MySQL server (3.23.58) on RH9
(located on a dedicated server outside the country).

ERROR 2006: MySQL server has gone away
No connection. Trying to reconnect...

SQL statements are okay, tables are okay but whenever I stay idle for
a few seconds, I get an error. If I retry, I get a reconnect and
everything goes well... Then the same thing happens again. I have
set all timeout parameters to a few hours and it doesn't help? What
could cause that, any idea?

I have tried increasing the server parameters like "max_connections" "heap size" and various other parameters.

PHP-MySQL: Returning ID When New Record Is Made?
Let's say I create a new record in a table like this:
mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (col1) VALUES ('example')",$conn);

....that had an auto-incrementing, unique identifying column named "ID"
that would be populated with a unique number upon insertion...

How can I get the unique number it assigned to that record returned for
futher use?

Why Close A DB Connection?
Why should I close a DB connection?

I have asked this question somewhat before, but never received a solid answer, like "it's good practice", but why?

I use a hosting company for my websites. I have created a mysql dabase using my hosting company's control panel. Now, I am trying to figure how I connect to it to enter data.

MYsql Connection/PHP
I am getting the following message, when I installed mysql client version 5.1.11. I get this message when I tried to connect through PHP. I am using, windows XP professional.

"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"

Connection Lost
I have an unusual problem with the error "Lost connection to MySQL sever
during query". I receive this message only when querying one table in a
database. All other tables and queries work fine.

5.0.1 Connection Problems
I have installed 5.0.1 on RH Enterprise V.3 Everything is fine locally. When I try to connect with ODBC from a remote PC via excel, navicat, MysqlAdmin,Control Center, Toad, etc., etc. The connection takes at least 10 seconds and navigating the tables and admin is very slow. I only have this issue with 5.0.1. Does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening? I am stumped...older versions are almost instant. This has become a major roadblock for me as the lag is unacceptable for what we need. If anyone has experienced this let me know or if you have solved this please share.

Asp Connection Strings
I am a novice at using database websites. I need to connect to a MySQL database on a remote server using ASP......

I have been given the following by tech support at my ISP (Fasthosts).....

"DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};SERVER=data.domain.com;PORT=3306;DATABASE=myDatabase; USER=myUsername;PASSWORD=myPassword;OPTION=3;"

My questions are

Is "DRIVER" a Memory Variable, and if so,

Does "DRIVER" gain a value (True or False) if the connection is successful or not (respectively)?

Can anybody let me have a more complete ASP script which will let me know if the connection has been sucessful or not.

Connection To Database
is the syntax the same as connecting to mssql using asp?? this is how i connect to mssql using asp:

Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set RS = SErver.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
strConn = "DSN=FYP_Actual;Driver={SQL SERVER}; UID=sa;pwd=;"
Conn.Open strConn

is this the same way i connect to mySQL too?

Connection To MySQL Using .net
I am trying to connect to a MySQL database, using the .Net framework.

I installed the newest MyODCB (3.51) and the .Net ODBC drivers from
Microsoft.

I made a System DSN using the driver, and i get it to connect - so far
so good.

But if i try making a new connection i my code using the sample
connectionstring from MySQL, i get an Exception :(

"An OLE DB Provider was not specified in the ConnectionString. An
example would be, 'Provider=SQLOLEDB;'."

What i try is:

Return New OleDb.OleDbCommand("DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51
Driver};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=bigshop;UID=root ;PASSWORD=;OPTION=3;")

Remote Connection
How do i connect to a remote (webserver) Mysql from the windows command line?

PHP Connection To MySQL
I'm working on a simple script to create two tables within a database, and I'm sure its just some stupid error I'm making, but I cannot seem to get it to work! Here's my function: Code:

Connection Problem
I have a computer i am slowing building into a web server. I have Apache 2.0, PHP4.2.3 (i think, PHP4 anyways), and MYSQL 4.1 running on windows 2000.

I wanted to run PHPNuke on it right now, but i am having problems connecting to my MYSQL. I can't seem to get the login information on my PHPNuke config file right, and I have no idea where to get it. I try localhost, root, my pw, and the table name, but no dice. Tried many different things.

Is there somewhere in mysql, mysql admin, or the Control center that tells you the correct information? I am rather new to this, can you even connect a php program to MYSQL if they are on the same computer?

MySQL-PHP Connection
the problem i'm facing is of mySQL-PHP connection. i'm trying ...

<?
$link = mysql_connect("localhost",'root','nawal')or die("Connect Error: ".mysql_error());
print "Successfully connected.
";
mysql_close($link);
?>

and getting this message...

Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in C:Program FilesApache GroupApache2htdocs estindex.php on line 5

Too Many Connection Problem
There are only 5 users surfing my website, and I suffer from too many connection problem. I use freebsd and mysql-server-4.0.24 with vBulletin.

Here is my my.cnf file:

Is there anything wrong with my configuration?

Lost Connection
I am getting this error "ERROR 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server
during query" when i try to connect from one client, on all other
clients i don't have any problems connecting to specific server.
Also from this client i can connect to the other servers without any
problem.

Connection Problems
When I try to connect to the MySQL server I get this message:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (61)

I used the mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "pass") function. I don't know what this problem precisely means or solve it.

Connection Count
I've got a problem getting the count of the users that are connected to a mysql-db in combination with a terminal server (win2k3)

I can get the processlist from mysql, but all the hostname's in that list are the terminal server itself, and not the users connected through the terminal server.
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/show-processlist.html)

How can I get these adresses ?

MySQL Connection Over LAN.
I have installed mySQL server on a computer (ServerName: AHMED, ip:192.162.0.1) and teh server listens at port:3306.

I type "mysql -u root -p" on command line to connect to the server on local host.

Now I want to connect to the same server over the network from a computer (ComputerName: FARAZ, ip: 192.168.0.2). I Copied mysql.exe to the client PC (FARAZ) and I typed the line "mysql AHMED -u root -p" on FARAZ (Client PC) but It says that it fails to find any mySQL sever on AHMED.

1] If I only have to copy mysql.exe on the client to access mySQL server over a network.
2] Am I right to type "mysql AHMED -u root -p" on the client to connect to the mySQL server?

HTTP Connection
Can anyone give me some brief description on how to establish HTTP connection from MySQL as we use UTL_TCP.CONNECTION in Oracle.

Connection Needs Too Long
I have a MySQL Server 5.0.21 with a Windows NT 5.0 System and try to connect with en Delphi application through ZEOS-Components over local network.

My Problem is that the connect to the WinNT server needs nearly 20 seconds, where a connection to an Windows 2000 system just needs 1 second.

Are there any problems that i should know?

Lost Connection
I send a big INSERT request to the mysql server and I very often get a 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query' error. Though the client and the server are on the same machine.... Is there any way to avoid this problem ?

MySQL Connection
I just install PHP5 and MySQL5. They all work but I can't connect to MySQL via php connection (mysql_connect). Could you tell me what is the matter?

Slow Connection
I build an application and installed it on many machines. In every machine except two, the program works without problems. On this two, the connection with database is too slow.

I saw the opened doors with 'netstat' and the computer opens about 5 or 6 ports (to the port 3306 of the mysql server) before sucessfuly connect with MySql Database and execute the sql. I don't know what could be happening. I realy need to fix this because the progrm is too slow with this error. Could anyone know what could be happening??

Closing Connection
Like in many database MSDE, SQLSERVER etc, once you are done with database you close the connection

Conn.close
Set Conn = Nothing

Do we do any such thing in MYSQL?

Closing The Connection
When i am closing the browser window all the active open connections to the db must be closed. Is it possible to do this, how?? I am using Java Servlets and Mysql.

Connection Error
I am currently running two servers one with Tomcat and the other with MySQL. They are both in different Windows domains and on different network segments.

I have the following users on the MySQL server:
user@localhost
user@%

I am getting a VERRRY SLOOOW connection between the two machines so I thought I'd add a user just for the Tomcat server. The IP address of the Tomcat server is 172.22.0.1 so naturally the user would be 'user@172.22.0.1' When I added this user I got the following error

Access denied for user: 'user@172.22.0.1' (Using password: YES)

Any ideas on what I can do to remedy the situation?

Create Connection
How much time it takes to create connection to MySQL and to execute a insert query .
which one is better in MySQL in following condition :- i m inserting a message for each recieved packet from network to my m/c. e.g 30 messages per second. means 30 queries per sec.
Please help me. which one is better:

1) i opens only one connecion and go on inserting.
2) open and close connection for each message.

3) give me time taken to create connection and close connection.
4) disadvantages of making a connection open.

Connection Via MySQLCC
i've a db on my PC.

It has 192.168.50.195 IP.
It has a user, named amministrazione, who can select records in this db.

If i launch mysqlCC as amministrazione to localhost, i can access to db.
If i launch mysqlCC as amministrazione to my IP, i can't access to db.

ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.50.195' (10061)

Any idea about this problem?

PS in my my.cnf there is not "skip-networking" option
PS in my grant table i've amministrazione@% user who can select on db.

Connection Lost
I've got the following problem: I've an select wich gets binary Data out of my sql-table.
The type is longblob and i've lauded some files into it previously with the LOAD_FILE function.

The files have a size between 0.5 and 3MB. I'm loading the data out of the tables with a select like: SELECT data FROM files WHERE file_id=1

After executing the command and some seconds waiting (70 seconds) i get the error "connection lost".

The file i'm actually trying to load has a size of 1,5MB.
(Im using mysql with C++ and the execQuery returns with false after that 70 seconds).

The code above worked fine as long as i use my computer as client use the server in my LAN or the remote server (client and server located in Germany).
When my mate tries to use this code from India the above error occures.

The question now is how can i handle that error? What can i do to get the file even if the inet connection might be a little bit unstable or slow?
Im specially interested in the way how the communication between client and server works. Is the "connection lost" because of instability or because of a timeout?
Every other query works fine from india, only this one which needs some bandwidth is failing.

Besides: i've set the following parameters both for server and client:
mysql_opt_timeout = 5;
mysql_opt_max_allowed_packet = 16*1024L*1024L; //16MB

for the mysql_opt_timeout: is this a timeout which is only important for establishing the connection? or does it affects every query?

Connection Life
If I establish a connection, how long will that connection live without being used? Is there a parameter somewhere in MySQL that determines this?

Connection Problem
