Oops,  I forgot to say that I can handle this db as a client on the command
line and it shows up under mysqlshow.

Jason,

Having tried your suggestion, I see that I can connect to the server but
cannot select the db.

Where do I go from here?

George

You haven't specified a password when connecting to the server -- does it
require one?

Have you tried the code as per manual:

$link = mysql_connect("mysql_host", "mysql_login", "mysql_password")
or die ("Could not connect");
print ("Connected successfully");
mysql_select_db ("my_database")
or die ("Could not select database");

to ensure that you *are* able to connect to the server and also *select* the
database?

Yes - progress - its telling me that no database was selected.

My code again:

Re: [PHP-DB] newbie having problem

2001-09-03 Thread George Pitcher

I did this directly into MySQL on the LinuxPPC box:

mysql> select * from biz where
-> ID LIKE '%AXD%' AND
-> Type LIKE '%' AND
-> Con LIKE '%'
-> ORDER BY ID;

and this is the response:


++-+-+--+-+---+
| ID | Type| Con | Operator | History | Notes |
++-+-+--+-+---+
 |DC | Piper Aztec | 27-4169 |  | G-AXDC  |   
 |DL | Piper Twin Comanche | 30-1856 |  | G-AXDL  |   
 |DM | BAE HS 125/400B | 25194   |  | G-AXDM  |   
++-+-+--+-+---+

In these records, what is actually in the ID field is also being displayed in 
'History'.

Not sure if this clarifies things?

George
