HappyGuyEpicure Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I have a small MySQL database which I manage through MySQL Workbench. Last week I created a heliohost account in order to upload the database and be able to access it via www. I tried to use Workbench to upload the database to my heliohost account. Is that possible at all? My settings were: connection method: standard tcp/ip host: wein.heliohost.org port: 3306 user: happyguy_1 (database user name I created on cpanel) password:******** (database password I created on cpanel) default schema: happyguy_wein It never works. What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyGuyEpicure Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Thank you for your hint, but I do not understand that: I always thought localhost is my own computer. But I want to upload the database from my computer to wein.heliohost.org!?! .................. Change host: wein.heliohost.orgtohost: localhost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jje Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I am slightly confused over your question. Would you like to connect to the database from your computer, or from wein.heliohost.org? If you wish to connect from your own computer, then go into 'Remote SQL' in cPanel and put a * or % in the box. Then use one of the below hosts, depending on which server you are on: host: stevie.heliohost.orghost: johnny.heliohost.org If you wish to connect from our server, then enter: host: localhost This is because that you will be connecting from the server, and from the the servers point of view, the MySQL engine is on the same server, so localhost will do fine.

cl58 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Localhost is relative to whatever computer the files are hosted on. Since your files are hosted on HelioHost's servers, localhost refers to whatever server you are using (Stevie or Johnny). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
