Hello,
I am having trouble connecting to my server with mysql_connect() . I can
connect via the command line on the server and with phpMyAdmin over our
network, but not though mysql_connect() . This is my script:
<?php
$host = '192.168.100.5' ;
$user = 'root';
$pass = <password>;
echo '<P>Connecting. ..</P>';
//echo 'mysql_connect( '.$host.', '.$user.', '.$pass.');';
//$link = false;
$link = mysql_connect($ host, $user, $pass) or die(mysql_error ());
if ($link)
{
echo '<P>Connection OK!</P>';
mysql_close($li nk);
}
else
{
echo '<P>Connection failed.</P>';
}
?>
The last thing I see on the page when I load this is "Connecting ..." -
nothing else. It's been a while since I have worked with PHP/MySQL so
please bear with me!
Thanks,
Andrew 4 5758

Call echo mysql_error(); after every MySQL function call to find out
what the issue is.

Both these methods connect to "localhost" . Your script suggests remote
access, this will not work since in many cases networking is disabled by
default (Good Thing(tm)). So read the mysql documentation and make sure
it's accepting remote network connections.

Well, since I am running this on my local machine, I changed it to
locahost anyway. That IP was my machine's IP. But anyway.
After I changed it to localhost it still is not connecting. Nothing is
being output to the page after the call to mysql_connect() .

I got it! Wow, not too smart, I am.
It seems I kind of forgot to enable the MySQL extension in php.ini...
Thanks to all,

I need that my script retrieves data from two different databases so I use
mysql_connect() to open two connections. I have only one server, user and
password, just two different databases. Simplified, it'd be:
$con1=mysql_connect($server, $user, $pass);
mysql_select_db($database1, $con1);
$res1=mysql_query($sql1, $con1);
$con2=mysql_connect($server, $user, $pass);

I have a small test script connecting to a MySQL database. It seems to
work, unless I try to use the resource link identifier returned by
mysql_connect();
This works and returns all the rows in the table:
<?php
include("../config.php");
$dbi = mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuname,$dbpass);

Hello people,
There is a problem is that mysql_connect() somehow caches last sessions
IP and is not using the one which you put into host place.
Has anyone made mysql_connect() from php to multiple SQL servers so
that script tries to connect to resolved IPs until it finds one that
works?
I have set up DNS so that on request sql.example.com it returns two

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
