PHP Connection to a MySQL database "An unidentified err has occurred"

This is driving me up the wall.... With my hosting provider
at work I cannot make a connection to a MySQL database with
dreamweaver using the new connection in the databases tab. "an
unidentified error has occurred"
I am certain that I am entering the info correctly and have
the correct permissions to access the database, I think it has to
do with the _mmServerScripts folder and the testing server.
With the hosting provider that I use for personal websites I
make connections all day long doing the exact same thing that I am
doing here at work and I'm stumped. I even read a lenghty article
on this forum with possible solutions... none of them worked.
Is there any way around the _mmServerScripts directory and
testing server to make a connection and then use the bindings and
server behaviors tabs to creat recordsets, etc??
Thanks in advance for any help!

Not if you want to use Dreamweaver server behaviors, no. The
usual
meaning of "an unidentified error has occurred" is failure to
connect
because communication is blocked by a firewall.

Connect to mysql DB (An unidentified error has occurred.) plz need help...

I have been unable to create a database connection in dreamweaver to my MySql
server. Each time I receive the message "an unidentified error has occurred".
I can use pure php code to create a connection successfully:
<?php
$username = "root";
$password = "password";
$hostname = "localhost";
$dbh = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
or die("Unable to connect to mysql");
print "connected to mysql<br>";
$selected = mysql_select_db("test",$dbh)
or die("Could not select first_test");
if (mysql_query("insert into test_table values('5')")) {
print "successfully inserted record";
else {
print "Failed to insert record";
mysql_close($dbh);
?>
This works, I can successfully insert a record. However, if I try and create
a connection in Dreamweaver with these same variables, I receive the message
"an unidentified error has occurred". I have tried, deleting the _mm
connection scripts folder and recreating them. I have used the mx2004 updater,
I have tried all document types... nothing seems to work...
i am using local server (phptraid)
PHPTriad 2.2 contains the following changes:
Updated packages for Apache(1.3.23), MySQL(3.23.48) and PHP(4.1.1).

There are two common reasons for that happening:
1. An incorrect testing server definition, or
2. A software firewall is blocking access between MySQL and
Dreamweaver.

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.

I've solved the DW problem by changing the site folders from
'db' to 'wwwroot' e.g. 'C:\CFusionMX\db\' is now
'C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\
However I'm now back to my original problem. I've lost my
mqysql connection in CF Adminstrator. Before I made these changes I
could connect to my mysql databases using the following settings:
JDBC URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
Driver Name: MySQL Connector J
using the following Java path and file:
C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-3.0.17-ga-bin.jar
Now these settings give me the following 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

username, password, URL, and other connectivity info"
Any suggestions on this would also be welcome.

How to connect to a MySQL database in another server

Dear friends,
I am using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.3 and I need to connect to a MySQL database located in another server.
I am trying to create a new connection, informing connection name, username and password. Supposing that "Hostname" is the IP server address, I click on "Choose database", but I always receive the following error message: "Status : Failure - Cannot connect to MySQL server".
Please tell me what I should do to solve this situation. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Franklin

You need to configure your mysql database to accept connection from your PC for the user you used.
For example,
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'someuser'@'somehost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Can APEX/ORACLE connect to a mysql database?

Hi
Just wondered whether APEX and ORACLE could connect to mysql database. I may have a requirement to link to a mysql database and retrieve the data and wondered if APEX could do this.
Thanks

Hi
Apex sits within the Oracle database. Oracle can connect to a mysql database via a database link so yes this is certainly possible. We connect extensively to an Informix database here actually. This is really an oracle question though so you just need to look in the documentation for the CREATE DATABASE LINK command and for setting up the actual connection.
If you need more help let me know.
Cheers
Ben

Connect to a mysql database with Oracle 9i

Hello,
how can I connect to a non_oracle-database in "Oracle 9i".
I created a ODBC data source. In Oracle8 I needed OCA. But in 9i I believe the OCA is replaced by another thing.
I wanted to connect in SQL*PLUS with:
username/password@odbc:mysql
But I get the error: ora-03121 "no interface driver connected - function not performed".
How can I connect to another database?

An unidentified error has occured? trying to connect with database for forms

I am new to website development and have been using dreamweaver for my website.
I am using WAMP server and have all my files on the host.
In dreamweaver when i add the database details:
connection name : connlogin
mySQLserver: localhost
username: root
password:
select database:
when i go to choose a database i get the error "an unidentified error has occurred"???
i try typing the database name and click test and still get the same error messages. all the tutorials i have been following say it should show the databases...
Just for clarity i have created my database and tables. I need to link my forms to the database.
I have searched online on various forums and cant seem to find a solution that works.
if anyone can help it will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Log into phpMyAdmin. Right hand frame, look for Privileges at the top. Can you verify that either % (wildcard) or "localhost" is listed for the user under the "host" field? And that the user has either all privileges or the necessary privileges on the database.

Need to re-download PHP Event Calendar with MySQL Database

How do I re-download PHP Event Calendar with MySQL Database purchased earlier. I need link without having to repurchase.

This has nothing to do with Adobe or Dreamweaver. Contact the company from whom you purchased your extension or widget.

MySQL "An unidentified error has occurred"

I have just purchased Dreamweaver within the bundle of Master Collection CS5.5 Educational.
I have been using Dreamweaver since UltraDev days. However I have come up against this problem after installing Dreamweaver and trying to connect.
"An unidentified error has occurred"
I have used a few programs to identify what messages are being sent out and it appears that nothing is actually being sent from Dreamweaver.
I setup the site fine, so I can transfer files back and forth to the web server. The database is on a different server, and I can use MySQL Query to connect to the database from the same PC.
I can't seem to find what the issue is. I tried multiple mysql databases on different servers and the same issue. It seems Dreamweaver is not doing anything when I hit Test.
Any ideas?
Andrew

Well, I may be a little late on this answer... but maybe it will help. After a few hours of messing with this; I FINALLY figured it out.
First of all, you have to have your site settings as such:
Step One
Remote Server Settings
Server Name: *Insert Name
Connect using: FTP
FTP Address: yourdomain.com
Username: yourusername
Password: yourpassword
Root:
Web URL: http://yourdomain.com
Step Two
Testing Server Settings
Server Name: *Insert Name
Connect using: FTP
FTP Address: yourdomain.com
Username: yourusername
Password: yourpassword
Root:
Web URL: http://yourdomain.com
Click on the Advanced tab
Testing server
Server Model: PHP MySQL
Step Three (this is the tricky part, lol)
Click on file, then click New.
Create a NEW, I repeat... NEW PHP page.
Let it sit.
Step Four
Now enter your remote SQL settings.
Not sure why... but this worked for me after HOURS of:
"An unidentified error has occurred"

Cannot connect to the phone system. An unidentified error has occurred, Please try again.

Issue: Lync 2013 users with remote call control enabled cannot connect to the phone system. When the user logs into Lync, they see an exclamation in the bottom right corner
with this error.
Error: Cannot connect to the phone system. An unidentified error has occurred, Please try again. If the problem continues, please contact your support team.
Environment:
1 site: Site1
2 Pools:
1. Lync 2010
Trusted application is added here for the site.
2. Lync 2013
Avaya phone system: AES r6-1-2-32-0
I have not moved the trusted application to the Lync 2013 pool yet, but my understanding is that it should still work since it’s in the site. Is my understanding on this correct? (All of my other trusted applications do work for Lync 2013
users & none of them have been moved yet. Remote Call Control is the only one that does not work.)
This is from the uccapi log. This is just from the user logging in, not actually making a call. Below are the items that I think are important, however, I don’t know how to interpret it to determine if the problem is on the Lync side or
the Avaya side. Here’s a summary:

Hi Suelizy,
To better understand the issue, I would like to collect the following information for troubleshooting:
1. Do you mean the Lync 2010 user can connect to the Phone System?
2. What’s next hop pool of the application?
In a mixed environment, you must set the next hop pool to be the Lync Server 2013 pool.
Best regards,
Eric

You don't say which server model or database you're using. If
it's

An unidentified error has occurred - solved

Dreamweaver has always had this particularly unhelpful error message ('An unidentified error has occurred') when failing to connect to a data source. I've been beating my head against a wall for a week now trying to discover why just one of my sites was failing to connect to a MySQL database (and only on the testing server) in design view. It turns out that I had inadvertently caused a problem with a custom .htaccess written for friendly urls.
If you are using mod_rewrite you must not affect the _mmServerScripts folder, created by DW in your web root. I have now added this before my main rewrite rules:
#end rewriting process for special folders
RewriteRule ^(admin|_mmServerScripts)($|/) - [L]
Hope it helps someone else.
