[PHP] dumb mysql_connect issue
Is there anything (add. parameters, etc.) that I'm missing that would possibly explain why the following code won't execute? ?php $connection = mysql_connect(hostname,username,password) or die (Couldn't connect to server); $db = mysql_select_db(database, $connection) or die (Couldn't select database); $sql = SELECT * FROM table_name.column_name1, table_name.column_name2; $sql_result = mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die (Couldn't execute query); ?

Try putting mysql_error() in your die statements so : or die(mysql_error()); and see what it tells you.

or, echo $sql and copy/paste it into an sql client and see what it tells you. on 7/31/01 4:21 PM, Philip Olson at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Try putting mysql_error() in your die statements so : or die(mysql_error()); and see what it tells you.

Fwd: Re: [PHP] dumb mysql_connect issue
Okay, well I used the mysql_error() print-out, and it returned something weird: Access denied for user: 'username@hostname' to database 'tablename' This is incongruous because: 1. The uid/password set I am using has full privileges. 2. *tablename* is not a database (the code I listed in my previous email is syntactically identical to the script)-- it's a table. Why is this happening to me?!?! ;) Note: forwarded message attached. __ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

Re: Re: [PHP] dumb mysql_connect issue
Is the error coming from a mysql_query() line or a mysql_select_db() line? Data Driven Design P.O.
