I am working on a payroll system. Everything is working fine on localhost (xampp) but when I upload it to ionos hosting, it is loading the admin login page fine but when i enter the username & password it is giving "Connection failed: No such file or directory".
DB name: dbs4868780
and here is the code:
<?php
$conn = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', '', 'xxxxxxxxx');
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
?>
EDIT:
I tried it but it is still giving the same error.
I also tried to connect DB with PHP code provided by ionos but it is still giving "Connection failed. File or Directory not found"
Here is the php code from ionos:
<?php
$host_name = 'db5005797255.hosting-data.io';
$database = 'dbs4868780';
$user_name = 'xxxxxxxxx';
$password = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$link = new mysqli($host_name, $user_name, $password, $database);
if ($link->connect_error) {
die('<p>Failed to connect to MySQL: '. $link->connect_error .'</p>');
} else {
echo '<p>Connection to MySQL server successfully established.</p>';
}
?>

I have bought a database MySQL to use on my domain/host.
I can connect to the database via wampserver (localhost) without problems.
But when I am trying to connect to the host website it gives me an error.
Connection failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql-******.net' (111 "Connection refused")
My code:
<?php
$servername = "mysql-*********.net";
$username = "username8954";
$password = "dolphyn1235";
$dbname = "animals";
$dbServerPort = "26313";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname, $dbServerPort);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
Any ideas how to solve this?
Check in your MySQL Server configuration files (my.cnf), find bind-address = 127.0.0.1 then comment them with # at the begining of the line. and then restar your MySQL.
I've been trying to upload my PHP MySQL(in Dreamweaver) project to a free web-hosting site.
When I logged in, there is an error that appear in dbconn.php file.
The error is shown below:
and here's the code in my dbconn.php file:
<?php
/* php& mysqldb connection file */
$user = 1350048; //mysqlusername to db
$pass = "password"; //mysqlpassword to db
$host = "eskl.freeoda.com"; //server name or ipaddress
$dbname= 1350048; // db name in server freeoda
$dbconn= mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
if(isset($dbconn)){
mysql_select_db($dbname, $dbconn) or die("<center>Error: " . mysql_error() . "</center>");
}
else{
echo "<center>Error: Could not connect to the database.</center>";
}
?>
I would really appreciate if anyone can teach me how to solve this.. thanks in advance!
As Kerbholz already stated, don't use mysql_* functions, they are really outdated.
Instead use mysqli:
$servername = "eskl.freeoda.com";
$username = "1350048";
$password = "password";
$database = "1350048";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $database);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
For your error it got mostly something to do your host doesn't allow remote connections. Try to change the serverhost to localhost or 127.0.0.1
I have written below php code to connect MySQL DB:
<?php
// Connect to MySQL
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "user";
$password = "A11b22c33&";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
However this code fails to make any connection. All I am getting is below error:
currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500
However if I remove the connection portion of my code then my php file working perfectly, i.e. I am getting echo as 'Connected successfully'
<?php
// Connect to MySQL
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "user";
$password = "A11b22c33&";
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
Can somebody help me to understand what went wrong? I have checked username and password, and they are perfect
I just installed mysqlnd using apt-get install php-mysqlnd, and it works fine.
I am using Xampp to update my website and since I have added a Mysql database I have the error further down locally while it works fine online.
I'm using the code below to connect to my database:
<?php
$servername = "myservername";
$username = "myusername";
$password = "mypassword";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
echo "Connected successfully";
?>
http://localhost/connectdb.php
Result:
Connection failed: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No
such host is known.
http://example.com/connectdb.php
Result:
Connected successfully
So there must be some configuration to do in Xampp to access a remote database or do I need to ask my host to whitelist my private IP Address? My host is OVH.
Thanks for your help
Hi I am making a login/register database. I am not hosting the database on the same server so how do I make it point to my separate domain? Also if you can tell me what the root is pointing to... Thx
Here are my files:
db.php
<?php
$connection = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '');
if (!$connection){
die("Database Connection Failed" . mysql_error());
}
$select_db = mysql_select_db('register');
if (!$select_db){
die("Database Selection Failed" . mysql_error());
}
?>

For starters, DON'T USE mysql_connect()! Use either mysqli or PDO. Second, don't have your application log in to MySQL as root; create an application-specific unprivileged user (with a password!) for this purpose.
You'll need to create your unprivileged user with connect privilege from the web server's IP or DNS address, and instead of connecting to localhost your PHP will need to connect to the DB server's IP or DNS address, like so:
$dsn = "mysql:host=mysqlserver.mynetwork.com;dbname=register";
try
{
$conn = new PDO($dsn, $appuser, $apppasswd);
}
catch (PDOException $e)
{
echo 'Connection failed: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
You could try the following example
$server = "192.168.1.1"; //server name or IP Address
$username = "root"; //database username
$password = "password"; //database password
$database = "mydatabase"; //database to connect to
$connection = mysqli_connect( $server, $username, $password, $database);
if (!$connection){
die("Database Connection Failed" . mysqli_error());
}
else{
//sql statement
}
mysqli_close($connection);
Thanks
