I am having some problems with my database. I created a user, and a database, but I can't seem to access it with php.
My code is:
$host = 'anapaiva.pt:2082';
$user = 'anapaiva_p1';
$pass = 'xxxx';
$db = 'anapaiva_mcmm1';
@mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die('err: '.mysql_error());
@mysql_select_db($db) or die('err: '.mysql_error());
And on the webpage, appears the following errors:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'anapaiva_p1'@'apollo' (using password: YES) in /home/anapaiva/public_html/mcmm/connection/dbconn.php on line 6
Warning: mysql_select_db() expects parameter 2 to be resource, boolean given in /home/anapaiva/public_html/mcmm/connection/dbconn.php on line 7
The same code was working with my other server, hungergamesportugal.com, but I can't seem to upload the sql file to that database (it says I don't have permissions... I don't know why), and on this server it allows me to import the sql file, but I can't seem to access the database.
Can someone please help? :/
You're using the wrong port. 2082 is for cPanel. 3306 is for MySQL (usually).
Generally, you can omit the port entirely:
$host = 'anapaiva.pt';
You also need to assign the connect function to a variable:
$dh = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
So that you can close the connection when you're done with it:
mysql_close($dh);
$mysql_host = "localhost";
$mysql_database = "db_name";
$mysql_user = "root";
$mysql_password = "password";
$con = mysql_connect($mysql_host,$mysql_user, $mysql_password);
mysql_select_db($mysql_database, $con);
OR
You can allow permission using cpanel, add permission to remote mysql. I don't remember exact name, but it was something like, remote database. on clicking you can add ip address to allow database permission. This may help you. search remote database at cpanel.
