MySQL problem with 1and1 hosting

I have just discovered this group.  I posted a similar post in the Dreamweaver area, but it probably needs to
be here.
I was asked to add database functionality to a website hosted by 1and1.  I just started to use DW CS5
recently and when I tried to connect the MySQL db using Dreamweaver, I got the 404 file not found error
message.  It has been a while since I have worked with PHP and MySQL, but I have used MySQL many times in the
past using DW CS4 and using 1and1, so I know that it used to be possible.
Here is what I have done so far:
Tried to connect using DS CS5.  Tried to connect using DW CS4.  I contacted 1and1 and they told me that they
no longer allow MySQL to connect using Dreamweaver.  However, they sell DWCS4 software to be used with their
higher end hosting packages (which I am using).
Here are my questions:
1) Is this a known problem with 1and1?  If so, is the DW that they sell altered to get around this?
2) Is this how other hosting companies are going, or is this only true of 1and1?

This means that they disabled remote access to their MySQL server for security reasons, meaning that you´ll have to...
1. set up a local testing server (eg. MAMP, XAMPP) and develop/test your work locally
2. upload the finalized files to the remote server and run them from there.
If so, is the DW that they sell altered to get around this?
Unlikely, because the product EULA declares a "No Modification" restriction.
Is this how other hosting companies are going, or is this only true of 1and1?
This is not uncommon with shared hostings in particular, though there may be some which allow remote access. Let´s hope that other forum participants can provide recommendations.

    I used to have a podcast that had been accepted on Itunes, but my I began to have problems with my host, so I changed host and created a new podcast, and I submitted my new podcast, Apple refused, and now says the feed has already been submitted? Maybe Itunes thought that I was someone trying to copy my old podcast because I kept the same name, I tried to change the names but it looks like I'm on a blocked list...

    There is a procedure for changing the feed URL for a podcast, which it seems you haven't followed: you have to add a special tag to the old feed - just submitting a new feed will have exactly the effect you describe. The proper method is described here:

  • Mysql problem with german special characters

    hi,
    I wrote a software and it worked quite good, but after I installed it on a new machine with j2se 1.4 I've problems with the german special characters.
    this code works good on the old machine (jdk 1.3.1) and prints the wanted characters like �,�,�.
    Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
    java.sql.Connection conn;
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb?user=testuser&password=xxxx");
    Statement s = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet r = s.executeQuery("select something from testtb where id='1'");
    r.first();
    System.out.println( r.getString(1) );
    but on the new machine (j2se 1.4) I only receive the character ?.
    I updated my org.gjt.mm.mysql to the current MySQL Connector/J 3.0.9 and added
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb?user=testuser&password=xxxx&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=ISO-8859-1");
    but I've got still the same problem.
    Thanks in advance

  • Problem with Apex hosted SQL Workspace

    Hi,
    I am having trouble with using currval on this site in SQL workshop. I have a demo table and have defined a sequence via sql. I successfully insert a sequence_name.nextval but when I try to add a related child record with current value of the sequence I keep getting this:
    ORA-08002: sequence ORDERS_ORDER#_SEQ.CURRVAL is not yet defined in this session
    I can check on nextval from dual and I can select the currval from dual also but when I try to use the currval in an insert, I get the same error above. Also, sometimes I get the same message even when selecting currval from dual. Seems like a problem with Apex at this hosted site. Or does Apex SQL workshop have issues with currval.

    Scott, Can you explain a little more about the difference between a hidden item that is set to display never & the other type of item which I am assuming is "display as text saves state" and display never?
    When I viewed the source for both of these I could not see the items in source code.
    Also for an item that is passed into a popup I am exposing hidden item's identity is there a different way to pass values... here is my example:
    <!-- Begin of popup for DNS_NAME -->
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    <!-- window size was 800*600 -->
    <!-- window size was 400*300 -->
    function popupPage(url) {w = open(url,"winDnsName","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=500,height=450"); if (w.opener == null) w.opener = self; w.focus(); }
    //-->
    </script>
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function callDnsNamePopup (IPId) {
    var IPId = document.getElementById('P103_IP_ID').value;
    var url;
    url = 'f?p=110:106:2066309280674317::::P106_IP_ID:' + IPId;
    w = open(url,"winDnsName","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=800,height=600");
    if (w.opener == null)
    w.opener = self;
    w.focus();
    </script>
    <!-- END of popup for DNS Name -->
    At the same time if I set an item as hidden and display never I cannot use it with a call to a popup...

  • Mysql connection with 1and1.co.uk

    I am trying to establish a connection with a mysql database at 1and1.co.uk but the connection cannot be established.  I have checked the login details with 1and1 and they have suggested I contact Adobe.  I am a 'design' interface user of Dreamweaver - I don't know code, so any simple suggestions would be gratefully received!

  • Problem with 1and1 email account

    Hello,
    I just got an iphone and am trying to set up my 1and1 email account.
    It seems like it works, but only 4 out of hundreds of messages actually show up on my phone. And they are from different people, at different times - nothing special about the 4 messages.
    I have the incoming host as:
    imap.1and1.com
    outgoing as smtp.1and1.com
    I have tried the port as 143, which was the default, and as 587, which I saw on some help thing online. Whenever I use 587, however, it switches back to 143.
    I know I can set up a gmail account and send it through this account, but I'd really rather just have it sync with my outlook.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    I realized what these 4 messages have in common: They were all received when my computer (and Outlook) was turned off! Those messages are on the iPhone but not my Outlook. I cannot find a solution to this - my email is IMAP, which I think shouldn't have this problem? I can only find solutions on Apple Support for POP issues in which the emails go only to one or the other device.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!!

  • Problems with the Host command (copying files)

    i am trying to copy a file from one location to another.
    i use the get_file_name function to select the file i want to copy.
    it does not work when in the path, if the directory name has a space in between.(e.g New Folder).The error i get is(the system cannot find the path specified)
    it works fine when a folder name does not have any space(e.g NewFolder).
    y:='o:\documents\filname.doc';
    x := get_file_name(null,null,null,null,open_file,true);
    host('cmd /c start /w copy '|| x ||' '|| y,no_screen);
    any help would be appreciated
    Thanks

    But this is all me, and I do A LOT of scrolling back and forth to cross check facts and so on. Having to constantly switch between files would be a huge pain.
    I guess it's a matter of work styles, but I'd much prefer to switch around among a batch of open chapters with a simple key combination, as opposed to scrolling back and forth through pages in linear fashion.
    How would ID handle a document of this complexity?
    With the limited information you've offered, I'd say I have experience with similar documents, (product catalogs/pricelists), that ID handled just fine, and other cases in which seemingly simple files choked it. I can say the same of Quark. No one can answer your question definitively; there are too many variables. Chances are it's not (only) the size and complexity of your document in itself that are causing your problems. There can be any number of hardware or OS issues contributing, to name a couple.

  • Problem with Virtual Hosts Individual Config Files and OSX 10.7 Lion (AllowOverride Setting)

    I am hoping some other Xserve users running OSX 10.7 (Lion) can offer some additional input or help in a couple of issues I am running into with the Apache settings on my server.
    Below is an example site config file on our server. We are hosting a number of sites and are using .htaccess files and apache's rewrite module to create vanity URLs. In order for the .htaccess files to be used AllowOverride has to be set to "All" instead of "None"
    The problem I am running into is everytime I stop and restart the web service on the machine it keeps changing this setting back in the individual site configuration files. I will change it to AllowOverride All and next time the server has to be restarted or the web service has to be restarted it is defaulting every site back to None which has become quite frustrating.
    Is there somewhere I can set this default setting to prevent this from occuring and forcing every site and site config to default to "AllowOverride All" ?
    Should I be researching this somewhere specific? OSX 10.7 changed the entire Apache Interface and the manner in which it runs and I am finding little to no documentation on it.

    Are you using the default Server.app, or have you downloaded and installed the (proper) Server Admin tools?
    Server Admin.app isn't included as part of the Lion Server distribution, but if you download it and install it you get the same set of admin tools as you're used to with previous versions. From there you should be able to set the 'Allow All Overrides' setting for your site.

  • Toplink with mysql: problem with blob size

    I'm using toplink with a mysql database. I want to store some data in a blob.
    In mysql there exist different sizes of blobs (in my case I need a mediumblob).
    But if I create the scheme for the database with jpa/toplink it alway creates only a column with type blob.
    I can explicitly tell the database to use a mediumblob by this:
    @Column("MEDIUMBLOB")
    But by doing this I limit my program to mysql of course, as this data type is not known to other databases.
    Does anybody know a more elegant solution to setting the blob size?
    for example with hibernate it can be done this way:
    @Column(length=666666)

    Looks like you are using JPA, and in JPA you would set the columnDefinition to the type that you want, e.g.
    @Lob
    @Column(name="BLOBCOL", columnDefinition="MEDIUMBLOB")
    byte[] myByteData;
    As you mentioned, this does introduce a dependency on the database. However, you can always either put the Column metadata in XML, or override it with something else later in XML.
    The length attribute was intended and specified for use with Strings but I guess there is no reason why it couldn't be used for BLOBs as well (please enter an enhancement request, or submit the code to add the feature to EclipseLink). Be aware, though, that doing so at this stage is going to be introducing a dependency on the provider to support a non-spec defined feature.
