MYSQL :: VB6 - Connecting To A MySQL Database

Connecting To MySQL Database
I have a windows program that retrieves and stores information into a mysql database. I ran this program a couple of months ago without a problem but now when I try to run it I cannot connect to my database.

What all do I need to make a windows program connect to a mysql database?

So far I have downloaded the MyODBC driver. Also I am able to connect to the database via webpages.

Is there anything else that I would need besides that MyODBC driver? I do have the right port(s) open also...

Connecting To A Outside Database
I have an account at hostultra, but they have no MySQl for free. I got two free database from freesql.org, but they do not provide hosting. You can only connect to thier database from another host. I don't know how to do that. This is the information that I recieved for my MySQL account:

Database xtremegamer99 created
The permissions have been set on xtremegamer99
You should now be able to connect to:
www.freesql.org
port 3306
as user XtremeGamer99

I have tried this, but it didn't work:
<?php

// Connect to the database server
$connect= @mysql_connect('freesql.org:3306', 'XtremeGamer99', 'PASSWORD') or die ('Unable to connect to the MySQL database at this time.' );
// Select the database
@mysql_select_db('xtremegamer99', $connect) or die('Unable to locate the cheats database at this time.' );
?>

It gives me the die() for mysql_connect.

Connecting To Test Database
I just downloaded and installed MySQL database server and admin client. I believe there is a test database installed with MySQL by default.

Is this correct? And if so - how can I connect to the database so I can perform queries on it to familiarize myself with the product?

Command line is ok - or if there is a GUI way to do it with the Admin client or another tool that would be good to know.

Connecting To Database Using Java
i am able to connect to mysql database located at localhost:3306 inside tomcat. But i wanna do it in stand alone command line java program.

this is what my code looks like:

com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource d = new com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource();

Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, provider);
ctx = new InitialContext(prop);

ctx.bind("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/bsidb", d);

// where provider is a string equal to "com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory"
// and bsidb is my database name

when i do the look-up it successfully returns the datasource.
and when i do getconnection
it returns a connection to the datasource.

the problem is when i do query... it returns an SQLException: No database selected

i am not using any config files because as i've said, i will do the connection using stand alone java program.
i use mysql4.1 and mysql-connector-java-3.0.16-ga-bin.jar, fscontext.jar are in my classpath.

Connecting To A Database Using WAMP
I'm currently using WAMP to work on existing website and database material. I downloaded the required website, but it didn't run without the database online, so I dumped a copy of the database to my hard drive and imported into phpMyAdmin, but the website still doesn't connect to the database with the address 'localhost'. What would I use? Where do I connect to the database I imported in phpMyAdmin. Here's the code for connecting as well as the error message.

// CODE

Connecting To Database For Newbie
Ive only started using MySQL this week and fraid im getting stuck on the basics! Im using the mysql server from a localhost and having problems connecting to the database. (im using a php programme for the mysql queries)

I can connect to mysql itself if i use the default settings: mysql_connect("localhost")

But when i try to connect to my database i keep getting the same error messages:
"Access denied for user: '@localhost' (Using password: NO)"

Ive tried creating a new user in MySQL and granting privileges such as:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON my_database.* TO user@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'passw';

When i change the connect settings to: mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "passw")
then i dont connect to mysql, but get an error message saying:
"MySQL connection failed: Access denied for user: 'user@localhost' (Using password: YES)"

Connecting To Database Over Network
I have a couple computers under one domain. I installed a MySQL database on my secondary computer and want to be able to access the information from that database on my primary computer.

Both computers are able to share files, no problem there, but when I try to connect to my secondary computer from my primary, it times out and says "Can't connect to mysql server on 'second computer';"

I had this working before but for some reason I can't get it to work now. Any ideas of what I'm missing here?

Also I'm using MySQLcc so it makes it a little easier for me. I've even created a second user account for the MySQL database on my secondary computer so I'm not trying to connect to through the root user.

(For example purpose, my secondary is called second and primary is call first...)

From my primary computer, I try to connect using this..

Hostname: second
User: user1
password: ****

And it times out when I try this. If I put this into my secondary computer it connects no problem.

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"?

Usually I just connect using the import wizard and bring tables down but I want to compare the table on the DB2 Server to ones I have locally so the only way to do that would be to write a query that connects to the Database.

I have the ODBC connectors installed and have a user and password.

Connecting To MySql DB From Different PC
I just made a test with mySql on Windows NT. I created a table with different fields, and I made a Java program to connect with JDBC to that DB. It works if I connect from the same PC where mySql DB is. I used this Java sentence to connect:

.....DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost/......

And it made the query I want.

But I would like that a PC in Internet could connect to that DB. I suppose I must put the IP of the mySql server instead of "localhost" on that sentence, but I got this error:

java.sql.SQLException: Invalid authorization specification: A
cess denied for user: 'a@cable87a004.usuarios.retecal.es' (Using password: YES)
