Windows Interface for MySQL

Hi,

My internet provider has mysql available but does not provide a user interface. I am using phpmyadmin on a different site but the file size is to large to consider it for the new site.

What choices do I have for working with mysql on a windowsxp setup? My code of choice is php.

You mean aside from using the CLI?

Sorry, I don't know what you are referring to, 'CLI'.

CLI stands for 'Command-Line Interface'. On Windows, it would be interfacing with MySQL via the command prompt.

To use it, you would simply open up a new command prompt window (Windows-R, type 'cmd', press return), then type something like this:

"C:\Program Files\Mysql 5.0\bin\mysql" -u username -p

I don't know how to do that.

The mysql db is on the web host server. I have no direct link to it that I can determine, except to upload a php document to connect to the db.

Is CLI practical is this case?

Ah.

To get this working, you'd have to add privileges for a remote User using your server's control panel, then log into MySQL remotely using its -h argument:

mysql -h ip.of.mysql.server -u username -p database_name

This is a fairly difficult setup to troubleshoot, so you might just be better off purchasing more space on your server so that you can install PHPMyAdmin.

How do I estimate the additional server space needed for a new install of phpmyadmin?
