405 error...help :'(

Question

I have been trying for the past 3 hours to find a solution to
this. everywhere i look sends me to a dead end solution.
I have been comissioned to do a new website, and i got the
client to ask for mysql databases.
when i try to connect to them with dreamweaver i keep getting
the error message "error 405 method not allowed"
i have tried replacing the scripts folder...changed the
connection settings...even uninstalled DW8 and reinstalled
DWMX2004....resulting in the same error message.
I was chatting to the web hosting company and they said that
it was working fine on their side and that they can connect to it
fine [not using DW obviously] They said that it was beyond the
scope of their support and that i should come here.
I'm willing to try anything you guys can provide me with.
thanks

Answer 1

Try this, Open a php page, then under application pick
databases then the +
sign then custom connection string.
Name the connection then in the connection string put in this
string with
your connection info.
driver={mysql};
database=yourdatabase;server=yourserver;uid=username;pwd=password;option=163
86;
Good luck.
