I have mysql running on a linux box. I have apache (2.0.4) running on a diff linux box. I have php 4.X.

Using Php To Connect To Access Database
First of all I'd like to appologise if this has been posted before, I did try the search, but for some reason instead of result, all I got is a blank screen (did try waiting to see if it was still searching/loading). I've done some basic php a while ago, but have now been asked to create a php script to query an msaccess database that is running on a WinNT server running IIS. I've looked around on the internet and have found code similar to the code below. My connection is the name of a system or file ODBC data source. However much I play around with this (such as putting the database path in where "myconnection" is) but I can't seem to get it to connect to the database I get the "Unable to open database" on my page. <? $db = 'myconnection' $conn = new COM('ADODB.Connection'); $conn->Open("DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=$db") or die ("Unable to access database");

Connect To Mysql?
I have a question. I have installed php and mysql on an apache-server on windows and I can't connect to the server. I tried to create a database (since I am trying to learn howto). My manual said I should write this at the shell: c:mysqlin>mysqladmin -u root creare mindb I did this and got this error: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' I then tried to use -p and wrote this instead: c:mysqlin>mysqladmin -p -u root creare mindb The database was created! Then I tried to write mysql in cmd at c:mysqlin but I get this error: Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: No) Why? I have used earlier versions of mysql and php and got it to work. In earlier versions "my.ini" looks very different and user and password were written there, but not anymore. Why, or is it me who have done something wrong? When I log in to phpmyadmin I have to root-accounts there, one with host=localhost and one the host=%. All I want, is to make mysql work, so I can test things and to learn!

Using PHP To Connect To MYSQL Server
I am new to PHP and MYSQL. I recently installed both PHP and MYSQL (the community edition) on my computer and I have been trying to use PHP to connect to and access MYSQL (instead of using the MYSQL command line). I used the mysql_connect() function on a test script but I am getting the following error message when I test the script. Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user ' '@'localhost' (using password: YES) in filename on line 10. I understand that I am being denied access because I have not submitted the right credentials. However, I am testing this code on my local computer where I have full privileges. What might be the reasons I am getting this message? What are the possible solutions? Do I need to configure mysql such that it recognizes that I am using it on a local computer?
MySQL Connect Not Working
mysql_connect("localhost","---myUsername---","---myPassword---");And yet, it won't let me connect and gives me errors. I don't think it's my username or password that is messing this up, I think it might be the localhost part. I don't know which port to use, or what to put there. So, I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to find out what to put, or what to put. Also, I am using PHPMyAdmin, so if this does not work with mysql queries then please tell me and I will try to figure out how to download a new MySQL database.

Subdomains & Mysql Connect() Problems
Hi all and thanks for any advice/info you may offer. Some time ago, we activated a subdomain in our main domain www.maindomain.com and subdomain.mydomain.com All php scripts worked as expected on the new subdomain. Yesterday we install SSL on the subdomain, and nothing works. http://subdomain.mydomain.com works fine https://subdomain.mydomain.com throws the following error: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) I know this kind of error occurs while you try to connect to a db in a diferent domain.

And if yes, what can i do? we are running PHP 4.4.2, Apache 1.3.37 , Mysql 4.1.14 and we connect to our main db with : $server_connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "pass"); $db_connect = mysql_select_db("databasename", $server_connect) or die("Cannot Connect to Database");

Connect To Remote MySQL Server
I have a fully functional page hosted on my PC that uses PHP and connects to MySQL on my PC to generate it's code. I now have some web hosting available which includes both PHP and MySQL support, however the webhost is still in the process of getting the MySQL support activated and functional. I therefore have uploaded my webpage to the host and edited the webpage code to access the MySQL server on my home PC - once the host gets MySQL working then the webpage will of course use the MySQL that my host will provide. The original code in my webpage to connect to MySQL is: $panorama_database=mysql_connect(localhost,$userna me,$password) or mysql_fail("Unable to connect to MySQL database."); I have edited this to: $panorama_database=mysql_connect(ī.207.???.???: 3306',$username,$password) or mysql_fail("Unable to connect to MySQL database."); (My IP masked by ?). And it's works no problems - however i have a dynamic IP address and wish to replace the hardcoded IP address with an alias from www.no-ip.com. So i tried both: $panorama_database=mysql_connect('http://mynoipalias.no-ip.org:3306',$username,$password) or mysql_fail("Unable to connect to MySQL database."); and (with no port specified): $panorama_database=mysql_connect('http://mynoipalias.no-ip.org',$username,$password) or mysql_fail("Unable to connect to MySQL database."); Both attempts to use my www.no-ip.com alias fail and i'm not sure where to look for logs to debug the problem.
Cannot Connect To MySQL Server Using PHP On Localhost
I have set up MySQL on my home computer, and I am writing a PHP enabled web site to run queries on this database. I have created a database called 'weather' on mysql that I want to access via my website. I have also created a user with a password (this isn't the real one, but I'll use this to illustrate my point) User: carlotam Password: blah Host: localhost To which user I have granted all on database weather. Using a PHP call: I try: $username="carlotam"; $password="blah"; $database="weather"; $host="localhost"; $var = $_POST['topic']; echo "<center><h1>ESCape Database Query</h1></center>"; echo "You have queried <b>$var</b><br><br>"; echo "Your database is: <b>$database</b>.<br>"; echo "Your username is: <b>$username</b>.<br><br>"; mysql_connect($host, $username, $password); @mysql_select_db($database) or die("Unable to select database <b>$database</b> on <b>$host</b>."); mysql_close(); And I keep getting the message "Unable to select database weather on localhost." Is there something wrong with the above, or is there something wrong with my MySQL server configuration? My server is up and running, so I was wondering if anybody can help with this problem? If this information helps: I am running MySQL 5.0.15 server on a PowerMac G4 laptop. And yes, I did check to see if the server was running before I checked the code.
