MYSQL :: Remote Connection To Sql Server

Remote Connection To MySQL DB Server From Client With No MySQL DB
I have MySQL server running on a Solaris machine. I have a Perl tool that is run on multiple operating systems (Linux, Solaris, MKS on windows, CYGWIN on windows). I would like to post to the MySQL database on the Solaris machine from this script when it is run on the different local clients. All these clients share a single network share (available via Samba on windows).

Is there a Perl module that I can install in the network share that I can use to connect remotely to the server DB?

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

Remote SQL Connection
I am trying to access my database on the server with a MYSQL front-end
client on my computer (not the server). I have the correct username,
password and database name. I tried every possible hostname, even its ip
addy, but each time, I am rejected by the server, which says something
like - access denied. I can access the database in my php code with
'localhost', but that's of course because the code is actually running on
the server. Is there anything I have to specify on the MYSQL server in order
to gain access to it remotely?

Remote Connection
First of all hey guys i'm new to this forum and hope to get some help on getting me fully started with mySQL.

Alrite i've really briefly used mySQL with java but only with a local database.

I need help on how to create remote connections via the internet to mySQL. Basically i've been trying to test out connecting via the internet from my home machine where mySQL is installed, i've tried this through windows command line and doing:

mysql -h myip -u myuser -p

also tried with --port=3306

but it doesn't work. Does the fact that i'm behind a router and have a different local ip matter? Or does the fact that i'm doing this from the machine that holds the mySQL database but i'm using the internet IP address to make it go through the internet. I've already opened up the port in my routers firewall.

I wanted to create a java application that can access a mySQL database over the internet so I thought i'd try out remote connections on windows command line first.

I'm very new to mySQL so any help in the right direction and/or what i'm doing wrong with some explanation will help me give a better understanding.

Remote Connection
just that. and DONOT point me to any documentation ive been through it all mysql will NOT let me give any host persmissions it keeps giving me the syntax crap and to check the menual when i did it just like the friggen manual said

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES TO db.*
-> root@'host';

and its really pissing me off.
im runing mysql 4.1.8 any ideas?
i also put the host in my hosts file and still nogo

Remote Connection
I'm having a problem connecting to mysql on a remote host because it truncates my user name (dbm.stetsonband.org):

ERROR 1045 (00000): Access denied for user: 'dbm.stetsonband.@d199-126-224-237.abhsia.telus.net' (Using password: YES)

Is there something I need to set in my mysql prefs somewhere?

Remote DB Connection
I am trying to install SAM Broadcaster and it requires tables to be installed on a mysql database remotely. I am not able to connect to the database for some reason and I am wondering if this is maybe because the MySQL server I am trying to connect to has remote connection protection on (if there is such a thing). Is there a way of determining this and is there also a way if this exists to allow remote connections to add tables to a mysql database?

Remote Connection Through Php Script
I have a mysql server running at the office on <officeip>:3306

I have a site hosted by a provider at domain.it

I have granted privileges for existing user office as office@domain.it and office@domainip

I wrote a php script using the parameters:

$host='<officeip>'

$user=office

$pass='<thepass>'

$db='<mydb>'

to connect to the office db from the website.

I get a 'Lost connection' error (no query to execute just connecting so no time-out problem)

What do you believe is wrong with it?

Remote Connection To MySQL
Trying to connect to a MySQL server from my desktop.

Specs:

My Desktop - XP OS - MySQL Administrator.
Server - Red Hat Linus OS - MySQL version 4.x

From the MySQL I am getting an error code 2003 "Can't connect to MySQL server (10060)". I am using the default port 3006.

Any suggestions? What additional information do you need to help me out here?

MySql Remote Connection
I'm having problems in trying to remote connect to a database and it's driving me nuts.

Database is on server, trying to connect to it through internet using MySQL Control Center with following settings:

Name: Lucca
HostName: IP address of server
UserName: Beeps
Password: """"
Port: 3306

I've made sure that the firewall will allow entry and can successfully ping the server, but I get the following error:

Error 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on "ip" (10060)

Establishing A Remote Connection
I'm trying to enable remote connections to my mysql database. I'm getting a
java.sql.SQLException: Unable to connect to any hosts due to exception: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

error when I try establish a jdbc connection. I'm supplying the correct user/pass information.

A quick google tells me that I need to enable connections from places other than localhost.
okay, so I do a:

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to raghav@'%' identified by 'blah';

As can be seen from the table below, i've tried doing it for anonymous accounts as well, when all of this didn't work. I've flushed privileges, and restarted the mysql server. no luck. Code:

Remote Connection To Database
i have a web-hosted website and i need it to connect to my mysql database is there anyway i could set this up.

Remote Root Connection
I am new here and I have a problem with configuring mysql. How can I set up mysql to allow remote root connections from a specific IP range?? Is this possible at all?

Remote Connection Error
I have been using a database on localhost for a while succesfuly. I am now, however going to be using this same database remotely. Whenever I attempt to connect to the database remotley I am given the error message:
Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'my ip' (10060) in C:OpenSAApache2htdocsindex.php on line 9
I have removed the bind-address line from the my.ini file in C:Windows as I read in a previous post you should do, and restarted mysql, but the error still remains. Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong?

Remote MySQL Connection Slow
I have a website on a dedicated server that was running really slow, so I got another, much faster server and transferred the MySQL database to this server. However, now when I connect to the faster server's database using the slower server's PHP web pages, the overall page loads much slower than when the database was on the slower server.

Any ideas why this would be? Right now the host name is just an IP address. Does it need an actual resolved hostname to be fast? MySQL on the faster server is supposedly tweaked for fast service (my-huge.cnf).

Error 2003 On Remote Connection
I have a WinXP Home Edition where I have installed MySQL 4.x

I can use MySQL Administrator on my server, but when I try to connect to my server by entering my WAN-IP, I get the error:

"Could not connect to the specified instance.

MySQL Error Number 2003
Can't connect to MySQL server on xx.xx.xx.xx (10061)".

Remote MySQL Connection Fails
I have two XP computers, with the same version of MySQL on each. I
have the same database structure and data on each. Each computer has
the same user name, and each MySQL database has the same user names.
Locally on each, I can connect and work with the data. I can ping
each computer from the other computer. My problem is that when I try
to connect from one computer to the other I get the following error:
Host 'XXX.XXX.XX.XX' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server.
This happens on both computers. I can not find the reason for the
error.

Remote Connection To Mysql Database Using JDBC?
I am trying to set up OpenOffice Base to connect to a remote os x server with mysql on it.

It has the default mySQL JDBC driver class set to com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

It also asks for server URL, should this be the ip address?
Port number? Default is set to 3306.

When I set the class it says that the JDBC driver could not be loaded.

Query Browser When Opened Via Remote Desktop Connection
I have a MySQL database that I set up by running a couple of .sql scripts.

The .sql files are fine and not corrupted.

But they are located on our server in headoffice.  When I try to open them in MySQL Query Browser (also installed on the headoffice server) via Remote Desktop Connection, the Query Browser opens a new script tab but does not display anything (i.e. no text in the scipt tab).

Also, I'm sure this is related, I can enter a query in to the execute box and execute it, but you cannot see the text as it is being typed.  However it is there as when I click the Execute button the query runs fine.

Any ideas why I am not able to see any entered text in the Query Browser window?  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Query Browser a few times, but this has not cured the problem.

Lost Connection To MySQL Server During Query / Server Has Gone Away
All of a sudden the server stopped working. When trying to execute a simple INSERT both from PHP and Query Browser, the server crashes and I get either "Lost connection to MySQL server during query" or "Server has gone away" errors.

The problem started on 5.0.18, and upgrading to 5.0.41 didn't help. I'm using Windows XP SP2.

I've seen quite a few posts on similar problems, but no real solutions though. Is that a bug?

Cannot Log In To Remote Server
I am trying to set up a replication server and cannot get past an error trying to log on to the master from the slave. I have tried everything I can think of and am at a loss as to what else I can check/do. The error on the slave server is:

Error: 'Host 'myslave.mydomain.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server' errno: 1130 retry-time: 60 retries: 86400

The error itself is confusing. Since this is the slave log, the reference to "this MySQL server" does not make sense. I am not (should not be) trying to connect to "this MySQL server" but rather the remote master server. I am guessing that the error is just poorly worded.

I have a user on the master with the host name 'myslave.mydomain.com'. What else is needed to allow that user to connect from the slave host? I tried changing the host name to '%' but that didn't help either. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Remote Server
How I can connect my aplication in delphi with database mysql in remote server?

Remote Sql Server
I am using PHP on my site and I wanted to play around with myqsql.
Rather than just going ahead and upgrading my account @ a monthly cost for testing, I thought that I would just add mysql on my pc and connect to it from my remotely hosted site.
I opened port 3306 on my firewall.
I can connect to the database but it will not allow me to select the database

MySQLimport To Remote Server

Connect To Remote Server
I am very new at this. I installed MySQL and PHP on my Hard drive. I can connect to MySQL through localhost on my hard drive. We have a server at work at a remote location. He just installed MySQL and gave me a password on root. As far as I know there are no databases created. I need to connect to the remote server and create a new user and database.

I've downloaded Secure CRT but don't understand how to use it. I entered my ip addresss in a new session and it seems to connect but then it says session fails.

I put a test script up and just get an error message. Should this script at least not give me an error message. Should I contact the person in charge of the server?

<?

/**
* Connect to the mysql database.
*/
$conn = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "password") or die(mysql_error());

?>

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

Connecting To A Remote Server
not 100% sure which forum this should go in.. if it is in the wrong forum i am sorry.

i have just got my ubuntu box working as a server at home with dynamic dns. i have still got my website on another server. i have taken all my DB;s across to my server and want the old server to update my new one so there is only one set of data to deal with.

my issue is how do i do this? so i started with started with a simple file that connects to ponywars.com with user name and password. Then realized that i should add the user in with external hosts. i did this in phpmyadmin with user name, host being *.* and setting the password and giving it ALL access to make sure i not missed something.

but when i ran this from the old server it just hang for ages then said:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Lost connection to MySQL server during query in /home/ghoxmfjz/public_html/test.php on line 7
cant conect to ponywars.com

so i tried it the other way around to connect to happygolucky.me.uk and get the script to run. this worked fine. so i can only think its a number of things.

i tested to see if my ubuntu box was listening on 3306 which it seemed to be.

i think i have added the user in correctly but not 100% sure on that one, seemed to have.

is the php page understanding how to connect to dynamic dns, cant see why not as the rest of the site works, ssh works, vpn works. as i understand it i have set up a dmz which forwards it everything to the server.

sorry i have not given more examples etc not sure what people need to help, so any all helps suggestions, flames etc are all welcome.

Connect To Remote Server
I have created a database in a remote host using MySQL 5.0. I created tables using the control panel of the host. I accessed the tables several times using the same procedure.
Recently, I downloaded MySQL Admin and tried to connect to the remote server. Nothing happens. It just froze there without any message or what. Is there a secret way of doing this? I can connect to a remote host in a local network but when it comes to using the internet via a router I always encounter this same kind of problem.

Connecting To A Remote MySQL Server
I havn't done this before and i'm not sure how to do it. I have another computer on a LAN that is running a mysql server and is the machine that is also running the intranet server which i am working on. What i want to know is how to connect to this server from my MySQL console so i can administer the databases without having to be in the main machine.

I thought it would be as simple as using the IP address but this doesn't seem to do it. Can i connect annonymously like i can from the host or do i have to have a user account setup?

Downloading A Database From Remote Server Using Ssh?

Connect To A Remote MySQL Server On The LAN
The MySQL setup on my WinXP machine runs fine with host localhost, username root, and my password. But I can't seem to access my databases from a different machine on my LAN. When I try to connect from another network PC , I always get:

MySQL Error No 2003
Cannot connect to MySQL server on 'remotehost' (10060)

All the settings in my ini seem correct. I've allowed TCP/IP connections. I know which port to specify. Did I forget to do something on the LAN to allow remote access? I've tried sharing the basedir and datadir folders. That didn't work.

I also tried using IPs instead of hostnames. Didn't work either.

When I try to ping the remote host (using MySQL Administrator), I just get a timeout error.

Can't Connect To Remote MySQL Server
I am developing a site on a remote cPanel system and I am not able to connect to the MySQL database from my location. My application can connect to the server using localhost just fine.

I have ensured that the correct port is open in the firewall (the server responds to telnet on that port) and I have added our IP address as an access host in the MySQL area of the client's cPanel but I am still unable to connect.
The exact error message when I try to connect is:

Access denied for user: 'user@<my IP>' to database 'user_database'

Remote Connect To Mysql Server
My host says that I don't need to login to my server in order to connect to my mysql server. They say all I need to do is enter this command into a mysql client:

mysql -h xxx.xxx.131.240 -u User -p Database
Password

However, they don't want to mention any client to use to connect with.
What client can I use? Putty? Where do I enter that command?

Problem Selecting DB On Remote Server (I Use Cpanel)
I'm having problems connecting to my a mysql db on a remote server.

Essentially, when I try to select the db..
mysql_select_db ("db_music") or die(mysql_error());
.. I get the "Access denied for user.." line.

However, I am sure all my info is correct. I've also added my ISP into the list of allowed mysql hosts.

Could this be a problem w/ my ISP or a local firewall?

Remote Access To MYSQL Server Host
I am trying to access a mysql database on my old host (I'm doing a CMS migration to something on a different server.) My hosting company doesn't have a CLUE what I'm talking about when I say MYSQL server host (I'm not even sure I do). They keep telling me it's 'localhost'. I can access both dbs through their prospective phpmyadmins.

Is there any way I can find out what the host server is? I would just export the db and then import it into the other one, but all attempts at that have failed.
