Hello Victoria I am using Delphi5.0 version with mysql-4.0.3 beta and MyOdbc3.51 Since I can access the remote host from any machine using a jsp page and a jdbc driver mm-mysql-2.0.4 , I hope that there are no constraints regarding network. Also I am able to ping the server from the client machine.
And I created a system dsn using myodbc and against the server name I have checked for the server name as well as IP address of the server. Both work fine when the application runs from the same machine as the host. But when I try to move the exe of the application to a different machine than the server, it says that the alias name(dsn name) can't be found. The server machine is Windows NT4.0 sp 6a and the client machines are windows XP and windows 98. The error message is Unknown Database AliasName : phmysql where phmysql is my dsn name Hope this clarifies you Regards Kayamboo Suresh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Victoria Reznichenko" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 17, 2002 11:11 PM Subject: re: mysql4.0.3-beta with delphi5.0 > kayamboo, > Tuesday, September 17, 2002, 9:43:07 AM, you wrote: > > k> Is there anyone using mysql with delphi5.0 > k> I will be very thankful to get some tips to connect to a remote server > k> running mysql4.0.3-beta using delphi5.0 odbc dsn. > k> I am able to connect with a local server but can't with a remote server. > k> I can't find any help in the delphi sites. > > k> Any tips or suggestion urls will be greatly appreciated > > Did you get any error?
