Contect MySQL Database On A Mac To A PC

i would like to know is their any way to contect a mysql database to a pc so i could develop on my mac form my pc
thank you

Have you considered enabling/installing PHP/MySQL right on your Mac? PHP is already installed and just needs to be enabled. MySQL needs to be installed, but it's really easy.
THIS site should help, if you're interested. It works great.

Does Time Machine back up MySQL database?

My medical practice billing software runs on MySQL. I upgraded to Leopard specifically to enable Time Machine backups - more frequent than nightly backups, with recovery much faster in the event of problems in the middle of a busy day. The software vendor tech rep stated that the MySQL database is not backed up by Time Machine. That seems very strange, since it backs up all the System files and everything else not specifically excluded. Am I missing something?

I don't understand what he said. It sounds like something to do with the Exclude list of TM preferences. Are you only backing up the MacPractice folder or is TM backing up your entire hard drive? What it reads to me is that if you backup only the MacPractice folder that the folder does not include the MySQL database. That is correct since MySQL creates the database file in its own special folder. But if you backup the entire hard drive then everything is backed up including the database files.
BTW, since this is a business entity I would strongly advise that you not rely entirely on Time Machine backups. TM can be finicky and unreliable. Potential problems escalate when you use a Time Capsule because of the mechanism TM uses for backing up networked drives such as TC.
I would recommend you use another backup utility and do additional backups to other external or internal drives depending upon what your computer supports. You should also make at least one separate full backup archive monthly that can be stored off-site in the case of theft, vandalism, storm, earthquake, or other hazard that could result in loss of data. See the following:
Basic Backup
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
6. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
7. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
8. Data Backup (Commercial)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
Although you can buy a complete FireWire drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
Cool Drives
OWC
WiebeTech
Firewire Direct
California Drives
NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

Strange problem with MySQL database

Hello,
I'm totally puzzled by a strange error occurring with PHP/MySQL on my website... I hope someone has got an idea of what's going on and can let me know.
In short, I have a MySQL database set up on the remote server where the website is hosted. Some pages of my website access this database with PHP.
If the website is viewed with a browser in Windows (Firefox), it works well, the database data appear on the pages.
If the website is viewed with a browser on Mac OS (Firefox, Safari), it doesn't work: the database isn't accessed, I get no error, just everything on the page below my PHP code is missing.
I've attached two screenshots to show this. The website URL is: http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/
The pages were this occurs are: the home page (index.php and alternative index2.php), the Abous us/News page and the About us/News/Archives page.
I really don't get where my mistake is. I would like to keep the remote server connexion details outside the root folder, but I guess that if there is no solution to this problem, then I'll have to move it back (I think it might have worked like that).
Thanks in advance for any comment,
Emilie
More details
I'm using DW CS4 on Windows XP emulated via VMware on Mac OS 10.5 (don't ask why, I wasn't given any choice). I've set up a localhost server on XP via XAMP and the news database is also there.
Because I'm currently flipping often between the testing server and the remote server, I quickly got fed up to change all the time the connexion mode to the database (localhost or remote server) and have to resynchronise the files each time. Hence I decided to automate a bit the way the database is connected to.
1. These 4 HTML pages with PHP code have got the below two lines when the PHP code starts:
$pathpfx = "../.."; // see mysqlconnexion.php
include('assets_design/php/mysqlconnexion.php');
2. mysqlconnexion.php (see code below) calls a "connexion" file (in PHP) depending on the value of one parameter ($conxchoice). If $conxchoice = 1, the "connexion" file on the localhost is called. If $conxchoice = 2, the "connexion" file on the remote server is called. I've stored the appropriate version of mysqlconnexion.php on the localhost and the remote server (and I have checked it a million of times, they're in the right place).
<?php
// This code is called by and therefore included in the code of some PHP pages,
// independently of where the pages are located within the website folder.
// - Connexion to local server: I couldn't get the function include_once to work
//   with a relative path, hence the use of an absolute path.
// - Connexion to host server: I couldn't get the function include_once to work
//   with an absolute path, hence the use of a relative path. This leads to the
//   following problem: the path of conxsrv.php needs to be adapted to the
//   position of the calling PHP page within the website, in order for
//   conxsrv.php to be found on the server (it is located outside the website
//   root folder). The variable $pathpfx is used for this purpose.
$conxchoice = 2; // connect to 1 = testing server, 2 = host server
// Connexion to database
if ( $conxchoice == 1 )
{ include_once('C:\xampp\htdocs\CERC\assets_testing_server_only\conxloc.php'); }
if ( $conxchoice == 2 )
{ include_once("$pathpfx/cgi-bin/sqlconx/conxsrv.php"); }
?>
I would guess that a first hint of solution lies in the comment block, but I've really tried everything I could think of to work with relative path/absolute path respectively, unsuccessfully.
3. The "connexion" file looks like:
<?php
# FileName="Connection_php_mysql.htm"
# Type="MYSQL"
# HTTP="true"
$hostname_conx = "aaa";
$database_conx = "bbb";
$username_conx = "ccc";
$password_conx = "ddd";
$conx = mysql_pconnect($hostname_conx, $username_conx, $password_conx) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR);
?>
With aaa, bbb, ccc and ddd the appropriate value depending on the file. The # lines were introduced by DW when these files were created (I've then changed the variable names and moved the files to another place).
Screenshots

Well, my question has actually not been answered yet but the problem, as strangely as it appeared, has now disappeared. Best but scariest of all, I didn't do anything. Weird.
Hope it never comes back,
Emilie

MySql Database set up on Snow Leopard Server for Wordpress

I am trying to set up a mySql database on the snow leopard server in order to install wordpress.
I have played around with the MySql database settings (in the server admin window) but can't seem to figure out how to set the database name, username, and password within the Snow leopard server.
Do I need to use third party software like Navicat to create the database and user names etc? If yes, any idea how to do that? If now, how do I create a MySql database, username and pw?
I have put the Wordpress install folder on my Snow leopard server. When I navigate to my domain it says I need to configure wordpress by providing my database name, username and password.
Thanks in advance.. I am struggling here.

That's set up via the [MySQL command line|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/376]. Or you can install the (free) Sequel Pro GUI package, given you're probably more comfortable in the GUI. The steps required for Mac OS X Server are the same as most any other platform, so [launch the MySQL client per the Wordpress Codex|http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress], and follow the instructions.

Cannot connect to MySQL database

Hi
I'm new to flex builder 3... and have therefore looked at
lynda.com to learn about the product and get started fast. And here
they show you how to create a connection to a MySQL database using
MAMP on a mac (or WAMP on the PC) - I'm on the mac ;-).
I have installed the MAMP server with both MySQL, Apache and
PHP running on defalt ports. And I have created a simple database
in MySQL... The site is running fine and so is the MySQL (I have
tested with simple HTML etc)... but when I try to connect to the
database using the wizard in Flex, I get the following message:
Unable to connect to the database....
If I look at the details it say (hold on):

.... and more ...
What the h.. does that mean - Plz advice someoone ... I'm
really stock here ;-(
Kind regards
Brian

Thanks for the answer, but I must be doing something very
wrong - as I still havn't found the correct solution ;-(
I have as mentioned tried both the default MySQL port (3306)
and the one used by MAMP (8889) but without any luck.
I do restart the MySQL server each time - and MAMP even does
that by default when changing the port number.
If I open myphpadmin the DB is running and as told I can
connect to it using Dreamwaever...
But If I run the command "telnet localhost 8889" you told my
to, in terminal I get the following message:
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying fe80::1...
telnet: connect to address fe80::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host
So here it looks as if I can't connect ??? The same happens
if I try the default port 3306.
Everytime I test in the wizard I get the message:
com.mysql.jdbc.CommunicationsException: Communications link
failure due to underlying exception:
** BEGIN NESTED EXCEPTION **
java.net.SocketException
MESSAGE: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host
STACKTRACE:
java.net.SocketException: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No
route to host
at
com.mysql.jdbc.StandardSocketFactory.connect(StandardSocketFactory.java:....
etc
And yes it is the Data -> Create Application from Database
wizard that I'm trying to use.
I don't undersatnd why the lynda.com video tell that it is
important to change the MAMP's settings to the default port instead
of using the MAMP ports, when you say it is not like that ? They
even show how to disable the default Apache webserver to use the
MAMP one on port 80.
Hope the terminal message can give someone a hint to the
posible problem.
Thanks in advance

Setting up mySQL database

I'm trying to set up mySQL database on my mid 2009 15" macbook pro running snow leopard.
I downloaded the dmg file and installed all three files on the dmg.
I can't connect to the database through the terminal or through system preference panel.
Does anyone have an idiot guide or walkthrough for setting up the database?

I'm not sure if this is going to help you, I think I used it at the time I set up MySQL:

Export All MySQL Databases From CPanel Account Using Actionscript 3 Air Desktop Program

As the title says, and I know there are easier ways, but I need to figure out how to write inside my Adobe Air program a way to retrieve all my MySQL databases and then export all of them to my local computer. So it would export them in the .sql format and I could easily import them if I ever needed to.
I don't know where to even start to try to incorporate this feature.
Thanks

Hi Jian,
Sorry for the delay.
We're generally a Mac house, so there's only the one Win7 machine that we test on. However we did send the app out for testing, and had similar results on some (but not all) of their Win7 environments.
Where should I send the app?

Beware: Time Machine doesn't backup MySQL databases regularly!

I have a Mac OS X Server which runs as a webserver. I had to replace the internal harddisk, which is backupped with TM too. So after replacement I restored the system from the TM backup and discovered that I lost some database content. The contents of the restored database content was several days old. This means that TM doesn't backup the database hourly.
FYI I had backupped the database myself to be sure, so I didn't lost any data. But it took some extra work after restoring. All other files on the server were okay.

I'm making an assumption here... but your post doesn't have a ton of detail about your setup so...
It probably has more to do with the fact that you actually shouldn't be backing up a mysql database with time machine if the database is running/live (Of which Time machine has no idea about any of this).
You can't backup open database just like that and it doesn't only apply to time machine. You need to first be doing a dump of the database either manually or with an automated script and then you could allow time machine to backup the dump. You're asking for trouble and behavior similar to what you noticed here if you backup a mysql (or any other open database) in this manner. This includes the LDAP database if this machine is an OD master and cyrus database if you run the OS X mail server (pre 10.6).
Just an FYI that it is quite likely that time machine backed up the files in question but that the database was probably damaged or missing data for the reasons I mentioned above.
There are tools out there that can automate this process (mysql website itself has a Mac GUI client that can do automated backups).

Connecting to a Mysql database using CF Administrator and DW

I can't create a mysql datasource in CF Administrator.
If I use the following datasource settings in CF
Administrator:
JDBC URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
Drive Class: MySQL Connector J
AND (note the emphasis) I set my local and remote folders in
my DW site local folder, remote folder and testing server folders
all to C:\CFusionMX\db\, I can connect to my mysql database in CF
Administrator.
However, with these DW site folder settings, DW doesn't
recognize any databases (Access or Mysql) at all.
When I change my DW site folder settings to 'wwwroot'
(e.g.local folder C:\CFusionMX\db\' is changed to
'C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot') DW now lists all my CF Administrator
databases.
The problem is CF Administrator can't connect to my Mysql
data sources. It gives me the error:
"Connection verification failed for data source: javaserver
[]java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in JDBCPool
while attempting to connect, please check your username, password,
URL, and other connectivity info.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: SQLException
occurred in JDBCPool while attempting to connect, please check your
username, password, URL, and other connectivity info"
I've tried changing the 3306 port to 8500, but this doesn't
help.
My java path and connector file is:
C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-3.0.17-ga-bin.jar,
Is this a ID/password problem? I've tried both 'root' and
leaving the ID field in the CF Administrator add data source block,
both to no avail. I don't have a password set in Mysql for 'root'
either.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated. I've been working
on this for weeks and keep running into one problem after another.
Thanks a million in advance.
Sincerely,
Graham A. Kerby

1) ensure mysql server is running
2) there are numerous tutorials for mysql installation out
there
3) there are good free mysql admin tools out there
4) use both the above to verify your mysql installation is
correct
5) please tell me you do have your zonealarm DISABLED

If it were me I would use the MySQL JDBC driver and not ODBC. Then DSN versus not-DSN wouldn't be an issue.

The wireless security setting that the Actiontec modem/router is using may be different...and not compatible....than the setting that the Comcast product was using.
If you think that might the case, and you have the time to troubleshoot......
Temporarily, turn off the wireless security on the Actiontec modem/router
Reset an AirPort Express back to default settings, then see if it will connect using no security and allow an Internet connection when you do the Ethernet port test in the post above again.
If the AirPort Express cannot connect correctly using no security on the wireless network.....then it is a no brainer to know that it will never connect when security is enabled. So, if the AirPort will not connect using no security, you may have an incompatibility issue between the Actiontec and Apple products.
However, if the AirPort Express connects OK with no security, then this tells you that you will need to use a different setting for security on the Actiontec...the same that the Comcast router was using before.....so the Express will have a better chance of connecting.
That setting would be something like WPA/WPA2 Personal, or the same setting stated another way would be WPA-PSK-TKIP.

but i have not access to MySql database in the web service yet...
please help...

Hi Luis,
If you see closely, the productID is actually a concatenation of the areaID and the productID. The reasoning here is that a product can be in multiple nodes of the product catalog and one would need to specify the product on a particular node for the direct URL to work.
On a client site, we came up with a better solution by creating a new FM to retrieve the specific areaID and productID for a product. This FM could be called by extending the webshop. Then a .NET program was written to re-direct a shortened form of the URL to the long URL and therefore the specific product in the product catalog. Eg.: http://yyyyy.com/b2c/b2c/product would be automatically redirected to http://yyyyy.com/b2c/b2c/init.do?shop=<shop name>&areaID=<area Guid>&productID=<product Guid>, something similar to the concept behind "tinyurl.com". A point to remember here is that this would work only for the B2C webshop.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ashok.

use this ...

Problem with connection in Mysql database in struts application

Helllo
i've just started learning struts for my new project where i'm having problem in accessing mysql database
the datasource being defined in struts-config.xml is as follows:
<data-sources >
    <data-source type="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
      <set-property property="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
      <set-property property="user" value="root" />
      <set-property property="password" value="" />
      <set-property property="minCount" value="" />
      <set-property property="maxCount" value="" />
      <set-property property="description" value="A" />
      <set-property property="url" value="jdbc:mysql:///dnbotind_nbotdb" />
      <set-property property="readOnly" value="false" />
      <set-property property="autoCommit" value="true" />
      <set-property property="loginTimeout" value="" />
    </data-source>
</data-sources>as i run the application
it gives the errors HTTP status 404-Servlet action is not available
Thx in advance

student-java wrote:

HTTP 404 is a "Page not found" error. The request URL is simply wrong. Either there's a typo in the URL, or there is a typo in the servlet mapping, or the servlet is not there where you think.

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.
