Hi I am newbie,after a lot of research I came to know abt 0000free.com as a free hosting provider which gives free hosting account with remote access to my SQL database, but I have a problem & need your help seriously.
What I'm willing to do -
I am currently working on a SMS gateway project & I'm not a good programmer @ all & my knowledge is self learning. Now I've installed Ozeki SMS Gateway software on my computer & in order for it to function it needs to connect to my SQL database..
I need to access the database via ODBC which I'm not able to achieve gets a common error as 10060.
My site - http://simsak.cz.cc
Credentials I've used -
TCP/IP - 96.9.189.10 (Shared Ip Address as I saw it in the cPanel of my 0000free.com account).
Also tried using -> simsak.cz.cc , 0000free.com respectively
User name - simsak_simon {DB username}(Also tried simsak , simon one at a time).
Password - xxxxx (DB password).
Also tried turning firewall on/off.
Also made change to my SQL remote access in cPanel (used % wildcard entry).. still no go
So am i doing anything wrong here resulting a failed connection.
Also I would like to add a point here as a part of this experiments I have created some account @ freesqldatabase.com / MySQLForFree.com / db4free.net AS they Provide remote access ONLY to my SQL Database but doesn't support webhosting & I was able to remotely access to my SQL database via ODBC without any problem... But I cant use their service for my project (which is a different problem 4me).....
So to cut this LONG story short
what i need to enter @ my database server PLEASE help me oh good souls....
