I have been using a script for accessing a MySQL database on my local server- I am now trying to move it to my on-rev account. I created a database in the on-rev account and then created a new user name (and password) and assigned it to the database. I modified the script from the original functioning stack with what I think are the appropriate changes, however, I cannot get it to accept the password when connecting:

It returns this Error message: Access denied for user 'theNewLogonID'@'myName.myUniversity.edu' (using password: YES)

I don't have the same phpMyAdmin tools as in the University server so I can't check the db permissions the way I am used to.

This is the essence of the code (with changes to the names):

Code: Select all

 global dbresult, dbID, dbSQL, sqlResult
   
   Answer "Connected to the Internet and ready to submit?" with "Yes" or "No"
   if it ="Yes" then
      put revOpenDatabase("MySQL", "MyAccount.on-rev.com","LearningDemo","theNewLogonID","theNewPassword")  into dbresult
      put dbresult
      answer dbresult
      if dbresult is a number then
         put dbresult into dbID
      else
         answer dbResult
      end if

  put "INSERT INTO Flying VALUES ('" & field "SubmitDate"  & "'," into dbSQL
      put "'" & field "SubmitTime"  & "'," after dbSQL
      put "'" & field "FirstName"  & "'," after dbSQL
      put "'" & field "LastName"  & "'," after dbSQL


      put "'" & field "TotalTime" & "')" after dbSQL

  if last char of dbSQL = ";" then delete last char of dbSQL
      revExecuteSQL dbID, dbSQL
      put the result into sqlResult
      
      
      if sqlResult is a number then
         answer "Submission OK: " & sqlResult & " record(s) altered." with "OK"
      else
         answer  sqlResult with "OK"
      end if      
   end if

I tried creating another user and password, but I get the same result.
Does anyone recognize the source of the error?
This is a scripting format that I found and modified a while back, so if there is a better way to do this I'm open to it.
Thanks,

I have had a similar problem on my servers related to "localhost" and submission from a Revolution stack. What do I need to do to access the 0n-rev SQL database from a Revolution Stack?

and be sure to declare the IP range for users who might connect to your mysql DB, in the "remote MySQL" function, on the CPanel menu page.

I accessed a web page on my server and then used the IP address that I found on the cPanel home page "Last login from". That is the only IP address I could find.
Using that I don't get the "access denied" message, but it goes busy quite a while and then finally gives error:

Can't connect to MySQL server on '75.xxx.xx.xxx ' (60)

Type revdberr,invalid connection id
Object Submit The Data
Line revExecuteSQL dbID, dbSQL
Hint revExecuteSQL

I used the % wildcard symbol in the "remote MySQL" function which I believe allows any host to connect.

I'm using the ID and password of the user I created for the database, not my main ID & Password.

I forgot : you want from a .irev file on your on rev account to access your local MySQL DB, right ?

In that case, you have to change the address by using "localhost" :

put revOpenDatabase("mysql","localhost","yourDBname","yourLogin","yourPassword") into dbID

No, this is a stack that will be used as a standalone or as a .revlet on a web page.
Will that work?

I haven't tried any .irev file applications yet.

Sure. I use it a lot.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. So back to basic.

-have you checked the privileges of your db user ? through Cpanelx, button "MySQL databases", and after click on the user

-have you linked your db user to the db you wish to connect to (function "Add User To Database")

-last but not least you should perhaps create a new db user with a very simple password.

I created a new user, assigned it to the database, and gave it all privileges to the database.
Still get the basic error:
Type revdberr,invalid connection id
Object Submit The Data
Line revExecuteSQL dbID, dbSQL
Hint revExecuteSQL

This is the specific error:
Access denied for user 'XX'@'cdm-75-###-###-###.xxxxxx.dh.suddenlink.net' (using password: YES)

This is a different address than was returned earlier.

Is this likely a problem in the database settings (user/PW)
or is it a problem in the general access settings in the "Remote Access Hosts" in the "Remote SQL Panel"?
Is there documentation on how to set the wildcards there?
Thanks
