flatpad Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone, and thanks to you/those that have put these services online.Although web design and hosting hold few secrets for me, MySql, app creation and hosting them is another ball game, i don't know jack.... So hopefully somewhere somebody can help me understand a few things!?I have a MySql chat made in Visual basic on visual studio 2015, it works fine locally.So far I have imported my DB through PhpMyAdmin and the tables are set, before i uploaded i noticed it says 'Host: 127.0.0.1 do i need to change this before re-uploading it?I have already manage to upload this to my ISP MySql but they don't allow remote access.Within my App it is asking for connection info as follows: On my ISP services i received the info by email, here i am a little unsure, although my DB name is obvious server=SOMETHING.heliohost.org; user id=MYHELIO USER ID; password=My HELIO PASSWORD; database=My DB nameWhat do i need to change the bold red info with. Do i use my helios user name and password?I have tried with this so far:server=johnny.heliohost.org; user id=MyHelioUserID; password=MyHelioPassword; database=db_MyDataBaseName"and get this message error:Authentication to host 'johnny.heliohost.org' for user 'MyHelioUserID' using method 'mysql_native_password' failed with message: Access denied for user 'MyHelioUserID'@'%' to database 'db_MyDataBaseName'The green part looks like i am using the wrong password I forgot to mention, my app needs the user to create an account before using it which is stored in the DB, as i said this works locallythanks in advance. OK after a short while i realized that i had forgotten somethingSo if anyone else needs it/BEFOREserver=johnny.heliohost.org; user id=MyHelioUserID; password=MyHelioPassword; database=db_MyDataBaseName" AFTERserver=johnny.heliohost.org; user id=MyHelioUserID; password=MyHelioPassword; database=MyHelioUserID_db_MyDataBaseName"Thanks again for the services i will put your name forward ;-) Edited June 27, 2017 by flatpad
