PHP and MySQL Connection problem

I am trying to make a PHP MySQL on a remote server connection in Dreamwesaver CS3.
When I enter the information (host, user, password, etc.) and hit TEST, I get the following error message.
"Access Denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured."
I know the user, password, etc. work, as I can access the MySQL database with other software.
I checked with my host and they say there are no permission problems on their end.
I have checked the settings on the Test Server page in Site Setup and everything looks correct and works there.
I have not seen this particular problem described in other forum postings (although there are a LOT of postings on this topic!).
Any help would be appreciated.

I thought my testing server was the remote server and is always on as far as I know. I don't know how to turn it on or off.
Is there some other testing server that I should be aware of?

Subject: PHP and MySQL Connection problem
I know you are using remote, but is your testing server on? if not turn that on and see if that does it. it just happened to me working on remote server and could not get mysql conn to work, until I turn on my testing (developer server), then I was able to connect to mysql and the tables that I created in phpmyadmin remotly was downloaded.

JDBC and MySQL connectivity problem

The code i hav attached generates Connectivity exception.. the prob is with the part in bold.. can anyone help
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
public class testconn {
public static void main(String args[]) {
    Connection con = null;
            String serverName = "localhost:8080";
        String mydatabase = "imagedb";
        String url = "jdbc:mysql://" + serverName + "/" + mydatabase; // a JDBC url
        String username = "am";
        String password = "ta";
    try {
      Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
     con= DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
      if(!con.isClosed())
        System.out.println("Successfully connected to " +
          "MySQL server using TCP/IP...");
    } catch(Exception e) {
      System.err.println("Exception: " + e);
    } finally {
      try {
        if(con != null)
          con.close();
      } catch(SQLException e) {}
}

I had such issue too, and I fixed it by adding in the environment variables the CLASSPATH entry that pointed to all the directories containing the .jar needed for the applications.
for example I used jodbc folder to connect mysql database (I installed last version and I got same issue than yours and it seems to be a 'connector' issue, exactly the same issue than yours) I got something like
CLASSPATH=my root dir/the java dir/the lib dir/jodbc;my root dir/the java dir/other important libs containing .jar files;
This is what I got for the issue, still working around (at the level of mysql all is ok, ...)

Can't really understand why this code won't run anymore, ...
I took a look on the other computer where the same code is running ok.
These are the differences:
mysql server is 5.0.18 on the other computer the version is 3.23.41
mysql connector is 3.51.12 on the other computer the version is 3.0.10
access rights are the same because the database is the dumped one from 3.23.41 to 5.0.18, and I'm quite good with the dbms management (I'm IT developper in fact, trying to take over java technology ;) )
in this case this is not a sql error but java error.
the jar file is set to the %classpath% folder on both computers
I copied the jar from the other computer, removing the new .jar file and... it failed, exactly the same issue
Still working around, ...

Problems with PHP and MySQLi server behaviors

Hi,
I'm a graphic and Web-designer with some knowledge of PHP and MySQL and I've been using Dreaweaver since very early ages in creating dynamic web projects and use the Bindings and Server behaviors quite a lot. But recently PHP has deprecated MySQL_connect since 2012 and it seems Dreamweaver isnt suporting the alternative MYSQLi server behaviors which will be the future of accessing Databases in MySQL along side with other options. Without this feature Dreamweaver is not of any use to us web-designers, since there are many Free great Editing software out there... Is the Dreamweaver team solving this problem? Or are you really planning on dropping this software? I've been using CS5.5 for a while and was planning on updating but this is a key feature and without it its not worth the investment.
Kind regards.

There are no plans that I know of to introduce a new set of mysqli server behaviours into DW from Adobe. They have left that to thrid party developers to bring out extensions which replace them.
What the server behaviours could do was very limiting anyway so I suspect any replacement mysqli behaviours would also be very limiting. I personally jumped into thre code and started to write my own mysqli connection files and query strings by watching a few simple tutorials on youtube - it isnt that difficult.
Look for 'php academy' on youtube - they have about 9 simple to follow tutorials on getting started with mysqli.

DW CS4 MySQL Connection Problem

I know this one has been covered before but i've been trawling through posts for the past 2 days and still haven't solved my problem.
I remember from using MX Studio and Ultradev that setting up a connection could prove challenging. It seems that CS4 is just as user-unfriendly in this regard. I know that the settings i'm using for the connection must be correct as i'm using them to successfully connect to the database and display its records using a hand-coded page. I've tried disabling Kaspersky and Windows Firewall but to no avail. I noticed one difference between the php script that dw attempted to make and mine is that i'm using mysqli whereas the dw version just refers to mysql. When I click on the Select button to try and select the database i just get "An unidentified error has occurred" - about as much use as a chocolate fireguard - well done to the dw development team for that pearl of wisdom. Is dw trying to find my databse somewhere where it's not located? I noticed that C:/InetPub and its subfolders are marked "read only" but when you uncheck this, it reverts to read only - i don't know if this may have something to do with my inability to set up a connection. I managed to manually set up MySQL, PHP and Apache without problems but this has got me beat. Is it bad design in dw or am i just stupid? Don't answer that! Any help would be greatly appreciated as i know there's a lot of good stuff in dw if i could only make a connection (and i'm on a 30 day trial with this) Why should something that looks so easy be so difficult! Thanks, Mark

Hi PZ,
You're correct! I just managed to get my connection to work. I looked in my php.ini file and it only had extension=php_mysqli.dll at the bottom of the page (the dll file to which this refers was in the ext folder). So, I just added extension=php_mysql.dll to the end of the php.ini file then downloaded the PHP 5.2.13 zip package from http://www.php.net/downloads.php and then copied the file php_mysql.dll into the ext folder. I got the clue about mysqli not being supported after i'd carried out a Site > Advanced > Remove Connection scripts - that at least gave me a message "Your PHP Server doesn't have the MySQL module loaded or you cant use the mysql(p) connect functions" - before i did this i just got a useless "An unidentified error has occurred" which left me no further forward. Thanks for your help!

How do I add an already built Shopping Cart (PHP and MYSQL) application to a page in a Muse site?

How do I add an already built Shopping Cart (PHP and MYSQL) (Cartweaver 4) application to a page in a Muse site? Do I have to export the Muse site as Html to dreamweaver and them use the extension to bring the shooping cart in or can I do it directly in Muse?
Message was edited by: mgv2048

We have experimented with doing this with some good success. We have been working on adding Cartweaver to a Facebook page by essentially adding a Cartweaver store to Facebook in an iframe. The "store" would be pages with just your basic product display, cart, and checkout functionality, with none of the "window dressing" - just use CSS to match the color and general look of the design it's being added to.
The one problem with this for Facebook is when it comes time to check out toy have to leave Facebook and go to your server where an SSL is in place. Fortunately in this situation this would not be the case, you can have an SSL installed to the root of your site and you'll be okay.
This is an interesting project. Give this a try and let me know how it goes and if you run into any snags, please make a post on the Cartweaver forums: http://forums.cartweaver.com - I'm really confident that this can work, and not only work, but work well.
Looking forward to hearing how this goes, and being of what help we can.

Set a max Upload quantity dreamwaver php and mysql

The issue,
using dreamweaver php and mysql I Would like to set a max
quantity limit on file upload per user. i.e max 5 uploaded images
allowed per user.
Here is a basic example of the creation. Just need the
implementation of how to set a max upoad limit.
create table authors(
id int not null auto increment primary key,
name varchar(10) not null
image_quantity tinyint(1),
create table images(
aid int not null,
image_filename varchar(50),
foreign key (aid) references authors(id)
User id 1 would upload a file into the table images from a
php or html webpage. i.e set values "thomas.jpeg", "1"
i want to set a max upload of 5 images per user. (a folder
for each user id will be created and photos stored in that).
I could add a field of max_upload tinyint(1) to the table
users and construct a php script that could add the amount of
images entered by a user into the images table and add a +1 to each
added. Problem is i dont know how to create that script or mysql
querty in order to enter into a recorset for example.
As anyone have any ideas of the best way to set a max
quantity limit of uploads.
Thank you.

Trying to get Apache, PHP and MySQL up and running

I have just bought a new MacBook and I want to set up Apache, PHP and MySQL in order to create a local mirror of a website I have in my 'Sites' folder.
I fall at the first fence!! To get Apache, I switch web sharing on in System Preferences' and I get the green light. When I click the links for personal website or computer's website I get a "Safari can't connect to the server" message.
Any ideas what I should do now?

Stephen Dancer wrote:

You will need to make some change to the index file in your Sites directory in order to enable Apache for that directory.
You will have to enable PHP in the Apache config file at /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
For MySQL, you will have to install it, and then fix it. You'll want to remove the StartupItem it wants to use and replace it with a launchd file. This discussion has a good roundup of the very latest tricks to get MySQL up and running with the latest security updates.

Dreamweaver CS5.5 Mobile Apps with PHP and MYSQL?

Hello,
I don't have Dreamweaver CS5.5 yet and I've been trying to search for information on this but I couldn't find any. I've been learning PHP and been developing with MYSQL with Dreamweaver CS5 but I wanted to know if I can use the same tags and everything if I would to build a Mobile App using the new Dreamweaver CS5.5 (http://tv.adobe.com/watch/cs-55-web-premium-feature-tour-/dreamweaver-cs-55-jquery-mobile- pages/). I overlooked at the video and it seems pretty easy building an app. So is PHP and MYSQL easily integratable? Are there any examples that I might be able to check out?
Thanks!

No. PHP is a server-side scripting language that requires a server (or server-like environment) to run.
An iPhone (or Android) application does not allow for a "built-in" server (which is resource intensive and has scary security implications). You just can't build an application with PHP/MySQL for a mobile device. Instead you can build a web service that your HTML/JavaScript mobile application can then communicate with. This is the only supported way you can use PHP/MySQL in a mobile app. Again: the PHP/MySQL should reside on a server and your HTML/JS mobile app can then communicate with that web service. That's what instapaper and other applications do.
Frankly, just make a web application that's mobile device friendly and you'll:
1) Avoid all the messiness of the app stores
2) Have greater control over what your web app can do (don't have to tow the Apple/Google line)
3) Have a web app that can work across mulitple mobile devices as well as standard web browsers (i.e. more audience = more $).
4) Future proof your application (pushing updates to your server and everyone using your web app is updated)
Otherwise, read-up on Adobe AIR and what it supports and remember, the best apps are written natively for the platform (i.e. want to write an app for an iPhone? Learn Objective-C and use xCode on a Mac. Want to write an app for Motorola Xoom? Learn the Android SDK and use inteliJ).

I need to know how I will create a dynamic website using php and mysql

I need to know how will I create a dynamic website using php and mysql that people could have the abilities of registering in the website, and modify their profile where they can add their pictures and everything. apart from that, they should have the ability to search about other member. hope to here more from you.

If you are a right-brained creative, and have no previous experience or propensity to be able to understand coding and database "stuff", and/or if your time can be better spent on other skills, I recommend you save your sanity and hire a developer... or at least the first time around. I have been attempting to grasp this for years... and have a library of marked up books to prove my efforts, all while trying to keep up with an ongoing client base that is always cramped. It's a wonder I still have my sanity... then again, I might not be the best person to determine that. Others might question it.
That said, I still plan to master php... one of these days.

DW CS3 to MySql connection problem

I have DW CS3 on Windows Vista. I have installed the Apache
web server and MySql. I've associated the Apache server for testing
and it works fine for page displays, so when I make a change to a
page and hit F12 it is uploaded to the test environment and
displayed in a browser.
MySql is up and running, I can log onto it with the MySql
admin client and see my database (just a testing one).
When I try to test the sql connection I get the message "An
unidentified error has occurred" and I don't have access to the
data.
When I try to test a PHP page it is treated as a file object
and not processed, just loaded for editing.
I don't know what I've set up wrong, any help
appreciated.

Was this issue resolved?
I have the same problem now. DW was working fine the one day and the next when I started it it had this connection problem.
I am testing on my local PC. My sites is at http://localhost/
All my connection are working because if I go to http://localhost/index.php I can see my site and if I go to http://localhost/register.php I can even register a new user. It will include the new user details in the data base and everything is working fine. So there is nothing wrong with the connection.
In DW I do have http://localhost/ on the Local Info screen. As I said, all was working fine on the current setup the one day and the next day it did not want to work.
Seems like a very common problem.
I want to buy CS4 and surely hope that the problem has been fixed by now.

JSP Mysql Connection Problem

Hi Friend,
I am facing some problem in connecting mysql with jsp .
When I try and connect to mysql with the following connection string
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/testdhiraj?user=root&password=dh");
Statement statement     = con.createStatement();
I get an error :
java.sql.SQLException: Communication link failure: Bad handshake
I don't know what is wrong,
as I had tested mysql using telnet and it connects and executes sql nicely.
Waiting for ur reply,
Dhiraj Agrawal
mail to : [email protected]

Hi,
You need to make sure that , you have given correct database name, user id and password in the connection url. and also check the jdbc driver is loaded properly. If your mysql is running in the standard port, you need not give the port as 3306.
Here is the example :
import java.sql.*;
     Notice, do not import org.gjt.mm.mysql.*
or you will have problems!
public class XampleClass
public static void main(String[] Args)
try {
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("exception while loading
driver.");
e.printStackTrace();
try {
Connection C = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:mysql://localhost/test?user=myuser&password=mypwddb");
// Do something with the Connection
catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
This is the format for conenction url :
jdbc:mysql://[hostname][:port]/dbname[?param1=value1][&param2=value2]...
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Senthil_Slash

Please help me.

I'm guessing the cause is probably the same as that article: PHP is 32bit but your Oracle libraries are 64bit.
You will need to install 32bit instant client and make sure they are used for Apache. Does Windows 2008 have sym links? Perhaps the note mentioned at the end of OCI8 IN WINDOWS SERVER 2008 x64 will help. Otherwise try creating some batch scripts to set PATH appropriately before starting Apache.

Few question about Java and MySQL connection

Hi!
I have some problems with creating connection between Java and MySQL.
I followed the restrictions in mysql-connector-java.jar' readme, I set the CLASSPATH :
CLASSPATH=.;D:/mysql/mysql-connector-java.jar;
I copied this jar file to the right place (descripted above), and I used the right steps to load it:
Class.forName('com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"); and it throws a ClassNotFoundException
Why? All the paths are correct, everything is on the right place.... I dont know why.
When I installed the JBuilder8, and copied the jar file to JBuilder8/jdk4/jre/lib/ext it worked without any CLASSPATH in enviromental variables.
If I want to run my program on machines where are not JBuilder, what should I do?
Please help, if you can.
Thanks,
henpanta

Yeah. So if I compiled my program with JBuilder to an .exe file, I cant run it on other machines, if the jar file isnt in the same place?
If I tried your advice, java -classpath mymainclass I got the next message:
main class not found. Believe me, its there. :(
