MYSQL :: Connect To Mysql Remote

Connect To Remote MySql Using MS Access Via IP
I have a MySql database on a remote webserver. I used phpMyAdmin to set everything up. I would like to use MS Access as the front-end to link to the tables in the remote MySql database so I can edit, add, delete data using an Access form.

My phpMyAdmin is on a server that has an IP address (like 12.34.56.78:8585). So I tried setting up a DSN on my home system using the same IP address and MyODBC Connector. When I put in the IP as server name, and the user/pass info, when I click test it just sits there for a long time and then I get an error:

[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Can't connect to MySQL server on '12.34.56.78' (10060)

Connect MYSQL From A Remote Location
I can connect to MYSQl via PHPmyadmin...only on the localhost. What do I need to do - to connnect, say from home or off the localhost?

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.

Cannot Connect To Remote Host MySQL
I'm trying to connect Mysql query browser from my PC (NT) to MySQL on a remote host. I always get the error message :-

"MySQL Error Number 2003"
"Can't connect to MySQL server on 'whatever.com' (10060)"

I've tried with Mysql control centre, and navicat, and they report the same error message.

I CAN connect from dreamweaver, but I really want some good GUI tools to administer the DB and data.there is phpMyAdmin on the remote site - but it bugs me.

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'

Connect To A Remote MySQL Server
I need to connect to a remote mySQL server. I have the IP address, userID, and password. When I try using these from another computer I get an "access restricted" error. How do I get to this remote mySQL server?

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?

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?

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());

?>

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.

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.

Can't Connect To Remote Host (10061)
I'm running MySQL server on a WinXP box at home. I have a cable modem/router. I've set up port forwarding on port 3306 to the machine running MySQL. I can connect locally just fine, but when I try to connect from a remote location using:

mysql works fine from localhost and I've granted permissions to connect from certain remote hosts. I just don't know why mysql restarts when a remote host tries to connect.

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?

Remote Mysql
I'm having a weird problem and hours of googling could not help me solve this, so maybe someone here can help me out? I'm by no means experienced with mysql, it just worked all the time so I didnt have to bother looking into it too much :)

We have 2 servers for our forum, one "powerful" server used as webserver where phpBB runs on, and one server that just holds the database (we got that after we found that code & database on 1 server caused overload).

So far, everything went fine for nearly a year now and I had nothing to do with all of it, all I had to do back then was edit a variable on my.cnf on the database-server I think, and then it worked.

Now the webserver's power unit broke, and after that the database had all these little errors on several tables, so I went to phpMyAdmin, marked them all and clicked "repair" - probably/like/surely a stupid move [my excuse: i was tired & in a rush as I did this from work] as the tables were rather big in size (several hundred mb). As expected, the forums didnt work during that, all I got was the typical phpBB "could not connect to database"-message. This went on for ages without anything happening, the tables just stayed "in use" (I could still connect to phpMyAdmin afterall).

After it wouldnt work, I restarted mysql, i restarted the server - those tables still stayed in use, so I flushed the whole database and installed a backup into another database, changed forum-configuration to read from the new db and thought things would be fine, but they weren't.

It just won't connect to mysql it seems, at first I thought some table must be still corrupted, but after some trying out, I realized that the database/forums DO work when being addressed as "localhost" from phpBB-files running on the database-server. When I change the configuration to connect via the IP of the server instead, it will give me the "Could not connect"-error just as it does when I try to connect from the webserver.

I checked netstat on the db-server to see if the the mysql-port was open and being listened to, and got this:
Active Internet connections (servers and established)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

this does mean it's theoretically working, right?

I also tried to grant all priviledges again on mysql, but didnt change anything either - do you have any idea what I could do? This is driving me nuts (especially as I can see the forums running fine when connected to by localhost).

As I said - this happened suddenly and has been working before for nearly a year, that's what puzzles me most, I didnt change anything on that server mysql runs on!

Remote MySql
I have make a php application and i want to use mysql for the database in different computer, the computer ip is 10.20.37.77 and mysql port 3306, the password = "root"

here is the code

$MySQL_Username = "root";
$MySQL_Host = "10.20.37.77";
$MySQL_Passwd = "root" ;
$MySQL_DB = "squid";
$db = mysql_connect( $MySQL_Host , $MySQL_Username , $MySQL_Passwd ) ;

the error :
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'root'@'xeon' (using password: NO) in D:Program

if the php application use mysql in localhost it work
$MySQL_Username = "root";
$MySQL_Host = "localhost";
$MySQL_Passwd = "" ;
$MySQL_DB = "squid";
$db = mysql_connect( $MySQL_Host , $MySQL_Username , $MySQL_Passwd ) ;

Mysql Remote Synchronization
I need to do a two way synchronization between my web server and a laptop. The laptop is located in eastern africa and does not always have an internet connection. The web server needs to be the master, (located in the U.S.) and the laptop needs to be the slave.

Whenever the web server makes changes the laptop needs to be updated and visa-versa. Does anyone know of program or some code that could help me with this? If so is there a way to save the code so the client (on the laptop) could dial-up and press a 'Synchronize' button and have the code run?

MySQL Remote Access
I want to be able to access my MySQL database that I installed on linux, from my Windows 2000 machine. I will be using the database from various programs such as VB 6.0, MS Access, etc.
I have installed MyODBC on both my linux machine and my Windows 2000 machine. I want to be able to access the database through this MyODBC connection on my Windows machine but I'm not sure how to go about setting this up on both machines. I'm am looking for some advice as to how to set this up or if anyone can point me to some good information on the web

I have a MySQL Server in a Windows Box. How can I connect to the server
from another windows box using ODBC?

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.

Connecting To Remote MySQL Problem
I set up a linux server for Apache, PHP and MySQL last night.

A problem remains. I can't connect to MYSQL with MySQL Administrator running on another machine. The error says I cannot connect 'hostnamt' of the machine I am on.

I can connect via command line on the linux server, and I have added entries in the user table specifying host as '*' with the account I am trying to use.

I flushed privileges and even rebooted the machine.

Is there some global setting that I must change to allow remote connections?

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).

Connecting To Remote Mysql Using Mysqladmin
I think Idid this before but cannot remember what i did. I want to use mysql admin to connect to remote mysql server as localhost so I can set server side features without having to be on the mysql server itself. I remember something in the way of "sip networking" option or something like this.

MySQL Max Connections Remote And Local
My website runs on two servers. One is mean't for PHP and the other is the database MySQL. Whenever a request is made, the PHP attempts to connect to the MySQL via a remove host variable in the mysql_pconnect() function. This works fine, however when it comes down to having lots of connections in the my.cnf file, which one do I edit?

max_connections = 1000

Now do I set this in the MySQL only, or do I set it in the PHP server as well?

Remote MySQL Connections, Still Not Working
I've read, and done all the tutorials, forum posts, and comments I could find regarding setting up a mysql server access for remote connections, but I still seem to have problems. I have a LAMP server running behind a closed router connection. A dynamic DNS is masking the connection, and I have the appropriate ports open for HTTP, SSH, VNC, FTP, and I thought MySQL (3306). But for some reason I still cannot get MySQL to connect from a foreign host.

The I have port forwarding (3306) to the correct system behind the router, and I can access the server just fine via http/ftp. The MySQL server is happily running PHP MyAdmin with the localhost connection too. I've set a (actually a couple now) user to have the ip access of "%", and granted all permissions to that user, flushed the permissions, even restarted the server. I still can't get the remote connection to work.

Remote ODBC Connections To MYSQL
I have a requirement to do some standard table work with existing online survey software (PHP based- using MYSQL). I would like to test the ability to do this work from desktop clients such as access or open office.
I have set up an ODBC connection on my machine with appropriate passwords etc. When I run the test in the WinXP ODBC diaglog, it is says that connection is succesfull.

However, when I try to use the same DSN in ACCESS or the database component of Open Office, it is that it is unable to make the connection. For example in ACCESS, trying to link tables, the message comes that the ODBC call fails.]

In OPEN OFFICE when I do the test connection, I get "ACCESS DENIED" for user... which is the user account and password that I use in the web based projects.

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?

MySQL Administrator On A Remote Machine
On my internal network i have mysql running on a test/development webserver (windows), and im trying to use the GUI tool MySQL Administrator on another networked pc but it wont work. It keeps saying 'Error 1045 Access Denied....'

I can ping it fine, and MySQL Administrator GUI works on the server itself.

Accessing Remote Mysql Host
I need to access a remote mysql host from my server. All host permissions have been set but the server refuses to connect. I can use a different one and there is no problem. It just seems to be from one specific host that I can't get access.

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.
