Graham,
i just did a quick test on Diesel, which is the server where your account is
hosted, and DB connections are working.
Maybe a dumb question, but are you in any case trying to connect to the MySQL
DB from your Livecode App/IDE ?
If so you need to
1. configure „Remote MySQL “ in cPanel to allow the "remote access" to
your DB.
2. use the following servername for connection YOURACCOUNTNAME.on-rev.com
if using localhost for the server the LC app/IDE tries to connect to a
MySQL DB on your computer instead of connecting to your On-Rev MySQL DB.
Warning: Please be aware that configuring remoteAccess for MySQL for your
on-rev account is a security risk and should be avoided.
If you tried to connect from a LC server script then either your script is
wrong or the On-Rev server is having some problems, maybe only with your
account.
Try the following script. Create a file e.g. dbtest.lc, put the sample script
into it and upload it to your public_html folder and open it in your browser:
http://YOURACCOUNTNAME.on-rev.com/dbtest.lc
If the output is a number then connection works, otherwise you will see an
error message in your browser
<?rev
set the errormode to "inline"
put revopendatabase("MYSQL","localhost“,"YOURDBANME“,“YOURDBUSERNAME not your
accountname“,“YOURDBUSER PASSWORD") into tDBID
put tdBID
repeat for each item i in revopendatabases()
revclosedatabase i
end repeat
?>
Regards,
Matthias
