Only the professional license allows Rev to connect to MySQL databases. Is that what you have?
Since you can connect using other programming tools, the SQL stuff must be installed correctly and you must be using the correct user name, address, password etc.
I use a script like this to make the initial connection: on mouseUp put fld "db user" into dbUser put fld "db password" into dbPass put fld "db path" into dbName put fld "db address" into dbAddr if dbAddr is empty then put "localhost" into dbAddr
put revdb_connect("MySQL",dbAddr,dbName,dbUser,dbPass) into dbresult
if dbresult is a number then
put dbresult into fld "db ID"
else
answer dbResult
end if
end mouseUpTry this and see if you can get a connection ID number back. I have only connected to databases installed on my own computer rather than over a network, but it should work much the same. I use OS X and haven't tried any of this under OS 9.
