Connection to MySQL Database

I am trying to work on a new site and get it connected to a MySQL database.  All setups for site and servers are complete, the testing server is working fine but when I click on the + to create a connection no dropdown appears.  There is no MySQL selection to make - nothing at all.  This is in Dreamweaver CS5.5.  Is there something I am missing?

Hi
Have you correctly defined your site definition server settings? Are you using the php page type, (file extension)? Have you created your database tables?

  • Connecting a MYSQL database in Dreamweaver

    Hi All,

    What does this mean?
    How do I start the testing server? I'm unable to locate the folder where the database files are stored as the database has been created locally on my machine.  Everything hace been created locally so I know that point 2) could well be irrelavant.
    Please can somebody help?
    Many Thanks

    The functions for connecting to a database were mostly deprecated.  But if you enable them in CS6 Cloud/CC then they will be the same.

  • Can I connect to MySQL database

    sorry for my English...
    I'm absolutely new in Flex
    can I connect to MySQL database?
    I read here that I need to create a java class file and edit
    an xml to create connection to oracle, can I connect to MySQL
    server too, I think that the PHP-XML is too slow to work with lare
    amounts of data... so can you post me MXML, the XML, and the JAVA
    class file, with I will be able to send sql to mysql server and get
    the response?
    or FDS is a stand-alone SQL server?

    Flex is not a SQL server.
    The Flex SDK and compiler supports developing applications
    that run in the Flash player.
    Flex Data Services is deployed as a Java web application that
    simplifies integrating Flex clients with Java server-side resources
    (including interacting with SQL databases via Java).
    FlexBuilder is an IDE for developing Flex apps.
    I'd recommend spending some time browsing the Flex product
    area on adobe.com.

  • I can't get my website to connect to mysql database hosted on my yahoo site

    I used David Powers tutorials to build a CMS website in Dreamweaver using a testing site set up on my computer. I installed XAMPP and got it working on my computer. (I have a Windows 7 PC with Dreamweaver CS6)
    Now I have installed the mysql database on my remote site following the instructions in the help section of Yahoo Small Business, where my website is hosted. I recreated the same database on the myPHPAdmin on my remote site. (If I understood what I found out when searching for a solution, Yahoo doesn't allow me to see the database from Dreamweaver. It seems that I have to make sure the connections are correct and then upload my site to the remote server. Then it should work once up)
    Following the instructions I could find on Yahoo it seems that all I needed to do was make sure that the user name and password were the same as on my local computer and change the my Sql Server in the Server Connection in Dreamweaver CS6 to mysql instead of localhost, upload my website and it should connect. When I go to my webpage online I get "No database selected".
    I know html, css, some php, and mysql.
    I have been using Dreamweaver for approximatley 2 years and have created 2 successful websites for my husband, who is a photographer. He now wants to have a blog type news website and since I couldn't get Wordpress to do what he wanted to do I decided to create a CMS website. It works great on my computer, but now I need it to work on my remote site.
    I know it's probably something really stupid that I have overlooked and I would really appreciate any help I could get.
    I'm more than happy to learn whatever I need to learn to get this done. I have been searching all kinds of forums and I can find a lot of posts about this or a similar problem, but no solutions.
    Please let me know if I need to provide more information.

    I'm sorry, the way I wrote that was confusing. In mysql it suggested you create a new user that had limited access to access each database you created, rather than use the root user which had all permissions. So in both the mysql on my computer and the mysql on my website I created a user with the same username and password, so that when my website was on my remote server the username and password were the same as when I was testing it on my local computer.

    Just looking at that part of your response, I don't get what they are asking you.  Typically the remote host will require that you update the username/password and possibly SQL server.  When you are in most shared environments, which is what I presume you are in, you typically have a username that is prefix_username.  So you should be updating your script to match that information, not the other way around.  Also with the "mysql instead of localhost" comment, you would only change the script from localhost to another server (ip address) if the mySQL server is not on your web server.  If you host tells you this is true thent he value should be an IP address instead of localhost.  Is that the case?
    For the second part of your question in the "Why can't I access my database" help on Yahoo it says "If your PHP or Perl configuration files require a host name, you may have a problem with your host name. Make sure that you are using the host name mysql, not the default host name localhost." I assumed that meant that in the setup menu when establishing a server connection I needed to replace "localhost" as the mysql Server with "mysql" and then upload my website. This didn't work. Since the mysql server I am trying to access can be accessed using phpmyadmin at www.mywebsite.com/phpmyadmin this seemed to make sense to me. I think I might have managed to access the mysql server, but I'm not choosing the database I want correctly.

  • Unable to connect to MySQL database in Dreamweaver CS3

    I have been working on this problem for hours and am getting
    very frustrated. I hope someone can help me out.
    My FTP server and MYSQL server have to use two different

    I will be using false information in this post but hopefully
    someone can help me out.

    when i try to use this information and then add a database
    using the (+) I get access denied errors.
    I have tried using 'localhost' as the server and
    '123.servername.com'
    I should mention that I am able to connect to the database
    remotely using the same information using software such as SQL
    Maestro, so I know that it isnt the database.
    can someone who has successfully done this kind of connection
    please tell me what is supposed to go where, the help documents are
    horrible at best.

  • Error when connecting to MySQL Database

    I am trying to connect to MySQL and receive an error everytime. I have attempted to talk to Bluehost (who my site is hosted thru) and they said it is not on their end and not something they can help me with. I set up a new MySQL Database with Bluehost and then set up the site through DW and everything went fine. I secured an ftp connection and went on to connect to MySQL. When I enter in my credentials for SQL Database, it returns:
    HTTP Error Code 404:
    Reason 1. No testing server running on the server machine.
    Reason 2. Testing server specified for this site deos not map to the http://my_domain.com/_mmServerScripts/MMHTPDB.php URL. Verify the URL Prefix maps to the site.
    The testing server model I am using is set to PHP MySQL and URL Prefix I am using (my_domain.com) is my website URL. I watched a YouTube video someone suggested elsewhere on how to add MMHTTPDB.php and mysql.php files to _mmServerScripts folder since the folder is empty but unfortunately, those files are not found on my computer. I assume they were supposed to be installed when I installed DW, but they are not here. I have done a general search of the comp and looked in each folder that was installed with DW and sadly, no files that match those names. What can I do? How can I make an SQL connection? Please help. It is greatly appreciated.

    Your answer can be found somewhere in here http://forum.wampserver.com/read.php?2,83382,88694
    My hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) looks like
    # Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
    # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
    # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
    # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
    # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
    # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
    # space.
    # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
    # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
    # For example:
    #      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
    #       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host
    # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
        127.0.0.1       localhost
        ::1             localhost

  • Trouble connecting to mySql database

    Hi Forum
    I have a site hosted with Godaddy, and have created a database, but I can not connect to the database with DW.
    1)  I made made sure that the invisible file _mmServerScripts folder and the Connections folder are present both on my local machine in the root directory and on the server.
    2) I can connect to the hosting account with FTP.
    3) I can connect to the database via Goddaddy and PHPadmin.
    3) I have pointed the test server to the same url as the hosting account but to a folder in the directory that is called test_server.
    (I have used this approach before, and it worked then)
    4) I have tried to log on with the URL that PHP admin tells me: http://nbst.db.6113589.hostedresource.com/ and also with http://173.201.136.50
    5) I am getting the standard error code 404 suggesting:
    "a) There is no testing server running on the server machine
    b) The testing server specifed for this site does not map to http://173.201.144.128/_mmServerScripts/MMHTTPDB.php Url. Verify that the URL Prefix maps to the root of the site. "
    6) The error message refers to 173.201.144.128. This is an unknown IP to me. The database is supposed to be at  173.201.136.50
    What am I doing wrong??

    ClassNotFoundException means the driver isn't loaded. "No suitable driver" usually tells me that the syntax in the connection URL is incorrect for some reason.
    Make sure you have an up to date driver JAR:

    The driver class name should be com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

  • Connection to MySQL database, DBCO settings

    Hi experts,
    I need to connect to a MySQL database located on a different side.
    I do have the IP and domain name (e.g. my.test.com), MySQL DB name (SAPtest), Username (SAPuser) and Password (*****).
    I did following entries under DBCO:
    Name: SQLtest
    DBMS: MSS
    User Name: SAPuser
    DB-Password: *****
    Env. Info: MSSQL_DNS=my.test.com
    Connection Limit: -
    Connection Optimum: -
    I hope you see already, that I get the error message SQL Server does not exists or access denied.
    I check already all kind of forum and posts, but couldn´t find a good and satisfying documentation for this case.
    Yes, MSS is not MySQL, but different user say it is possible with this settings.
    I am thankful for any help!

    Thank you for the answer.
    I know the MSS library is not made by name for connecting to a MySQL DB, but Gudmundur and Pedro Gallardo were giving solutions ON connect SAP to a MySQL database. It really sounds like it is compatible. That might be also the answer why SAP is not offering a special library for MySQL - yes that is really a guess.
    Maybe jdbc would be the best solution, but I have no idea how to use it within my ABAP program. Actually I have never used any Java code or programs under SAP.
    Do you have a sample code, where there is theI call for the JDBC connection out of my ABAP program to connect and disconnect to the MySQL DB? This would be very helpful.
    I simply want to open the connection write some data into the MySQL DB and then close the connection.
    Thanks!
