Re: Re: MySQL Connect using Dreamweaver

Will, is mysql installed on your local machine or on a different server? Do you work with root or with a newly created user? If mysql is not installed on your local machine, you have to grant access from other machines to your database. Here's an example (with a newly created user). Example: your work machine's IP: 192.168.0.25 your username: will open a mysql shell (with root/superuser privileges) and type: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'will'@'192.168.0.25' IDENTIFIED BY 'mysecretpassword'; use mysql; UPDATE user SET password = OLD_PASSWORD('mysecretpassword') WHERE user = 'will' AND host = '192.168.0.25'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; quit; if your database runs on the same system as Dreamweaver, replace 192.168.0.25 with localhost and it should (hopefully) work. regards Sascha On Thu, 2005-10-13 at 16:35 +0200, W Roothman wrote: > Dear Sascha, Mathias, Blaz > > Thanks, Sacha it worked, the AND localhost='localhost' did it, but my > new error now is > > 'localhost not allowed to connect to this MySQL server' > > grrrr... > > R's, > > Will > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sascha Kaufmann > To: php-db@lists.php.net > Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 9:46 AM > Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Re: MySQL Connect using Dreamweaver > > > You have to change the password hash to the old 3.23.x format > if you > don't want or can't use mysqli.
