Cannot Connect To Mysql Database


I am creating a html page to allow user submit their inputs in the text fields and the inputs they inserted will be submitted into the table "account" which is in "myfyp" database. I created the database using the PHPMyAdmin and I am using localhost as the webserver.

The problem now is I cannot connect into the database which I received the connection error message as I have set in the codes. The PHP file which is linked with the HTML form i created is namely "register.php", while the connection file is "connect.php", and the HTML form is "register.html". Code:

Connect One MySQL Database To Another
I need to connect a MySQL database on one server to another MySQL database on another server. The situation is similar to DBlinks in Oracle.

I know if you want to connect to another DB on the same server, you can use something like:

select a.cola, b.colc from thisdb.tablename as a, thatdb.tablename as b where a.colb = b.colb;

I need something similar but both databases reside on different servers altogether. Is it possible in MySQL and how can it be done?

Could Not Connect To The Database, Please Recheck The Settings You Specified. Also Make Sure That A Database With The Name You Specified Already Exists On The Database Server. PhpAdsNew Will Not Create The Database For You, You Must Create It Manually
The error message I get above is the same everytime when trying to install phpAdsnew. I have tried everything. I am hosted through yahoo! and have actually succesfully installed scripts before even though I know nothing about it. Now that I have a "auto-install", it does not work. Yahoo! also offers php-nuke with the auto-install where you just click a few buttons, and I get a similar error stating that it can not conect to the database.

Please can anyone help me and tell me what I am doing wrong?

Connect To Remote Database(MySQL)
is there some sort of setting I need to turn on where I can access the database from another server. So instead of using "localhost" I can use the actual server IP address.

And just for future reference, is this how you set up a application server connecting to a database server?

Connect MySQL To An Different Database Through ODBC
Is it possible to make a statement where you can import selected tables from a different datasource? Something like

INSERT INTO mysqltable
SELECT * FROM odbctable

Where "odbctable" connects through a connection string in de ODBC manager of Windows.
I know of a MySQL ODBC driver, but can MySQL communicate with ODBC itself on a Windows platform the other way around?

Even Root Cannot Connect To Database 'mysql'
The version of my mysql server is 3.23.58. Before hand, everything works fine. However, when I connect to the data server sit in host 'A' from host 'B' by jdbc. As mysql's user table denied the access from host 'B', I know when attribute 'host' in table 'user' is set to '%' will fix the problem, However, I set it graphically from phpmyadmin.

After setting, the direct result is I cannot connect to any databases in this server@A even from A the error msg is: ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'mysql'. By googling, I copied the 'user.frm', 'user.MYD', 'user.MYI' from another host to the corresponding path in host A and restart mysqld.

It doesn't work. Then, I tried 'mysql_install_db', gone in vain either. It cost me nearly 2 whole days . I have many important databases stored in this server, I am afraind the install of a new one will bring more problems. Any suggestions, or ideas?

Connect To MySQL Database From Another Host.
I am trying to connect to MySQL database at on host (DBhost) from another host (PROGRAMhost).

While I try to connect to the database at DBhost from DBhost itself the next is working fine for me: mysql_connect("localhost","dbname","dbpassword")

Now I am trying to find out what to use instead of localhost? I tried to replace localhost with host's url : port (I tried number of ports) but this is not working (even when I am connecting from DBhost itself). How can I find out what is the proper value to use instead of localhost?

Cant Connect To Database With MySQL Administrator

Cannot Connect To MySQL Database Using An Applet
I have a database I created in mySQL. I've been entering data every day
into the database using a Java application that I wrote. The database
and the Java program are on the same Win 98 SE machine.

I've been working on another program (an applet) to send and receive
data over the internet. I got the applet to connect with the database
and receive data. All the while I was developing the applet, I would
tell it to find the database at 127.0.0.1 if I wasn't connected to the
internet, or I'd give it the current IP address of my connection if I
was. This seemed to work fine all along.

Now that the program is nearing completion, I uploaded a copy of it to
my personal web space to give it a "real-life" try. Code:

Can't Connect To Database After MySQL 4.1.10 Upgrade
I using Apache 1.3.31, PHP 4.3.8 and MySQL 4.1.10 on Win XP home edition. Prior to MySQL 4.1.10, I was using MySQL 4.0.18. The PHP scripts were able to connect to the database. After the upgrade, PHP scripts can't connect to the database.

Are there any specifications for MySQL 4.1.10 to work with PHP/Apache??? I would like to try to solve this before using the "System Restore" option.

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?

Can I Use Asp And ODBC Driver To Connect To MySql Database
I just migrated my access db to mysql and I'm trying to figure out how change my connections and code for mysql, I was told that I would have to use php, but I also read that it can be done with asp using an ODBC driver which I have installed on my server. If I use the ODBC driver would I be able use the same SQL that I used to connect to the access DB? what other issues would there be?

Error Message: MYSQL RealTime: Failed To Connect Database Server Asterisk

Can't Connect To Database
I created a database that is over 2GB in size and I have been using it all day with no problem until I ran a command that was taking forever. Because the database is so large, I terminated the mysqld-nt process. (I can't get any ctrl-break to work. Is there something like that I should know about?)

Anyway, I restarted mysqld-nt. Then I started mysql and ran SHOW DATABASES. The new database is not in the result. The files are there where I can see them, but I don't know how to have them show up on the list.

When I run the command "USE <databasename>" that doesn't work. I get the message

ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database '<databasename>'

Is there a way to get connected?

Can't Connect To Database
I have installed the 5.0 version. I can access the Server Instance Configuration but need to access MySQL Administrator to set up access to my database at home for a remote connection. However, I have no idea how to gain access into Administrator. I have read the tutorial but can't gain access into Administrator.

I know my local machine ip address and have used this as the host name but am not clear on the rest. Do I need to be using the same user/pass from the Instance Configuration to log into Administrator? If so, this isn't working.

Cannot Connect To Database
I am using Sql 4.19 and php4 with Apache 2.o55 on Windows XP home. The first time I got the error I was trying to install a PHP script (someone elses)I was setting up the database and I know I was putting in the correct info database, pass, user I got an error saying something like SQL says cannot connect to database at odbc@localhost, something like that I did not pay to much attention I thought it was just the script and blew it off.

Now I am trying to install another script which also asks for this same info, user, database, pass again I know I am putting in the correct info and the script sends me back an error saying cannot connect to database please check your information again. I shut my firewall off briefly to see if that was blocking connection...no. So now I am stumped.

database name is "pct" and I can see it and table via command line

Bad To Connect To Database
Is it a bad practice to connect to the database on every page?
For example, I have 3 connections to the database on one of my page.
1. One connection to check whether a user is logged in
2. Another connection to get result from table 1
3. Another connection to get result from table 2

Is it going to slow down the process a lot?
What is the correct or better way to do this?

Can't Connect To Database
I've just downloaded a ton of code in a beginning Wrox book to create a forum. But the book's instructions are rather vague. It tells me to load the setup.php file (one of about 20 I downloaded) into my browser. But it doesn't tell the path to use.

Also, in the conn.php file, you have to fill in the following info:

SQL_HOST
SQL_USER
SQL_PASS
SQL_DB

I don't know if I'm using the correct username.

Connect To A Database
By process of the fabulous PHP, I'm trying to connect to a database on a different server, Server A, from my one I want to manipulate the info on, Server B.

I'm using a MySQL username, password and database from Server A just as if I'd be connecting to a database on Server B. Just changing 'localhost' to the IP of Server A isn't cutting it. How would be a clear-cut way to go about it? Would Server A need to give me more permission or something?

Unable To Connect To Database
We are using MySQL on Linux server and "NetCOBOL V7.0L10" to access our MySQL database. Our Linux ODBC driver description is "MyODBC 2.50 Driver DSN".

When trying to establish a connection to the database, we receive an SQLSTATE value of "S00?M" where "?" changes with each execution. The SQLCODE value is always 00000104 and the SQLMSG is always "[nxDC[C]MOB]cesdne o sr sxlclot Uigpswr:YS".

We suspect that there is something wrong with either the odbc.ini or the odbc.inf file definitions but can't quite determine what the error is.

Could Not Connect To The Database &quot;
My setup is: WIN2003, IIS6, PHP 5.2.1, MySQL 5.0.24a

I don't know what is wrong with my server.

I have 3 different php forums on my server, they were working fine with MySQL untill I updated php.

Not I only get the "phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database "

Nothing else.

What I do know is that php works, I have tested it with the php test file. But I can't get it to work with MySQL.
To get php work again took more that 6 hours for me.

I have found one thing that might be wrong. In "System variables" there is a "function" called "PATH". I did not have any information at all under the "PATH", form what I understood there should be several paths there to exe and similar files? Maybe there should be something there pointing to the MySQL directory or something.
That is just a guess from me.

Do anybody here know how I should write a test from phpmyadmin to see if I could connect to MySQL. In another forum they answerd that I should test if I could connect to the database from phpmyadmin, but not how.

How To Use Jdbc To Connect To Database?
I have installed MySQL4.1.9 and installed JDBC driver connect J/3.1 I installed MySQL in C:MySQL and I have copied the "mysql-connector-java-3.1.6-bin.jar" file into <java home>jrelibext , <java runtime environment home>libext and <Tomcat Home> commonlib.

I started up MySQL from the commandline client and created a 'books ' database using "CREATE DATABASE books;". I have also added the statement: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO '<user>' IDENTIFIED BY '<password>' WITH GRANT OPTION;

The problem is when I try to use java to access the database via jdbc. I typed the code:
Connection con = null;
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Drive").newInstance();
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/books ?user=<user>&password=<password>");

It compiles correctly but when i execute the code,it displays: "SQLException: java.sql.SQLException: Incorrect database name 'books ' "

I changed the statement to:
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql:books ?user=<user>&password=<password>");
but when executing,the message now is: SQLException: java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver

I have tried checked the jdbc manuel online but the con statement given is about the same. It seems that somehow jdbc cannot find the database and the driver is not recognised also.

PHP Applications Can't Connect To Database
I'm using WinXP and I've installed MySQL 4.1.14 and PHP 4.4.0 on it recently so I could test some PHP applications (shopping carts, CMS etc.). I've also installed a GUI (SQLyog) and I can access my
DBs fine through that - add & delete tables - and I can add usernames/passwords through the MySQL command line client. So that's all fine.

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.

How Do You Connect A Phpmyadmin Database To A Website Page
I've worked with websites for a few years, but have never been involved with databases.

I've managed to create a database in my phpMyAdmin - the versions are below:

phpMyAdmin - 2.8.0.2

* MySQL client version: 4.1.10

After I created the database, it gave me some code below, but am not sure what the next few steps are:

mysql_select_db ("practice_test");
