Hi, Basically we have created a Software in Visual Basic. Now the software uses mySQL on the internet as Backend. However, our server does not allow Remote Host Connection, which means we cannot access our mySQL Database on the Internet by our Software on a local client. We need the mySQL Database on the Internet because basically everything will be available on a website later through PHP Pages.
Now, my problem is how to connect to my mySQL DB on the Internet, via my Software, when my Server Company doesn't allow Remote Host Connection to mySQL. What is suggested to me is to place the Software on the Internet. I have no clue how to do that. Because if i place an .exe file on the net, it will just start downloading instead of running. How then can i accomplish this? The software feeds in Data in the mySQL DB on the internet, and then the PHP pages access the mySQL DB to show data to users on the Website. It's something like that. The software involves a lot of processing, decryption, conversion etc. to convert a .dat data into usable mySQL Tables Data. Hope somebody can help. Thanks, T.
