I have developed POS using the laravel framework. I want to connect my hosted account MySQL database local running laravel application. please help me to way to save data in cpanel MySQL server.
You need to enable mysql remote access in your cpanel.
Log into cPanel. Click the Remote MySQL button in the Databases
section. Enter the remote IP address in the Add Access Host section.
Click the Add Host button. You will then see a message stating the
host IP address was added to the access list.

I've created simple webapp + mysql database on azure and i've set ftp username/pass. I'm following this article:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-mysql-deploy-use-ftp/
Everything is fine up to the ftp part, i just can't connect to that ftp. I tried using the username/pass i set in Deployment Credentials. I tried using the username/pass i see in the PublishSettings file, but nothing is working.
I tried via linux ftp cmd and filezila and played with active/passive.
When i telnet ip 21 i'm getting timeout too.
Could someone please explain how to connect to that azure ftp?
Thanks
One common problem is that you need to have the username look like YourSiteName\YourUserName and not just YourUserName.
If you look under 'FTP/Deployment username' in the Azure portal, it gives the correct name with the site name prefix.
According to the offical documents, the section Deploy by copying files to Azure manually of the doc Deploy your app to Azure App Service introduce the steps of deploying the WebApp via FTP.
The key point of deploying via FTP on Azure is the FTP connection information, you can follow the steps 5 to 7 of the section Get MySQL and FTP connection information of the doc Create a PHP-MySQL web app in Azure App Service and deploy using FTP to find them from the .publishsettings file got on the Azure new portal, please see the picture below.
The method shown in the tutorial you link to is how I do it when I need to lookup my azure credentials - by downloading the Publish Profile and pulling the information out of there.
Here's how I do it:
using FileZilla (https://filezilla-project.org/) I plug the publishurl in the host field, leave the port blank, select FTP - File Transfer Protocol, use explicit FTP over TLS if available, Logon Type: Normal, enter userName in the user field, userPWD in the password field.
Click Connect and the FTP connection is made (after I click the security msg).
So it's a plain old FTP connection. There's nothing special going on.
If this isn't working for you I would suggest the problem isn't with your credentials, check the webapp has been started in azure, check you can ftp with another site\server.
Good luck. Hope this helps.
I have a Hotel monitoring web application developed in CodeIgniter.
It monitors each room of a hotel for activities and Sends live data about rooms occupancy, status of electrical switches etc.
It hosted in cpanel web server. I have the same copy of it in my local computer.
I want to synchronize the 2 databases (ie. in localhost and in remote server).
Every change in any database should be automaticaly updated to other database.
First I tried to access my remote database from localhost by putting host name as my cpanel Shared IP Address as follos
$db['default']['hostname'] = 'xx.xx.xx.xx';
where xx.xx.xx.xx is the shared IP of cpanel. but no use.
how should I proceed?
Thanks in advance
Option 1: The Codeigniter Way
You can set up a remote access MySQL server:
Tutorial for cpanel here: https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/enable-remote-mysql-
connections-in-cpanel/
Then just set up a new connection in your database.php changing the to $db['remote']['hostname'] = 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx';
Do note that you'll have to make a method to pull in this new data and replace it in your local database, so a script that can be run via cronjob.
Option 2: The Master/Slave Way
You can set up a Master database, being the hotel, and a slave being your local database. I don't know of a method to do this straight cpanel, but you can do it in phpmyadmin, there's a video on how to do it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfsmnx24gxU
This method would be the most comprehensive/automatic way to do it. It will overwrite any changes in your database though.
Note that any outside access to a database is potentially insecure. Be aware of this when choosing.
I've created an ODBC connection to my MySQL cPanel. I've made the settings in System DSN and when I press TEST Connection the message that returns is succesful. I've added the IP as a wildcard. Then I'm going in the SQL Server Management Studio to create the linked server. I fill up with the dates, I choose "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers", but when I press OK the following error is showing up:
The linked server has been created but failed a connection test. Do
you want to keep the linked server?
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"
for linked server "GRUPSAPTE". OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked
server "XXXXXXX" returned message "[MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver]Access
denied for user 'gsapte'#'XXXXXXXXXX' (using password: NO)".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)
I've created many linked servers for localhost but when I'm trying to create for my webserver it shows the error above. Do I have to make some changes to the webserver or some access things?
Any advise will be much appreciated.
have you checked that the IP address you are coming from is allowed for the login? When I have used MySQL in a hosted environment, the mysql server checks if the user who is requesting access is coming from a known\permitted IP address. Don't know if this is the problem, just one similar to what you are asking.
I'm creating a php page (on a godaddy server) which needs to connect to a mysql server and retrieve data from a database. When i run the page i got an error message stating that.
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on **
It says that the error is on the below line,
$conn=mysql_connect($dbhost,$username,$password);
My doubt is,
What needs to be given in place of username and password? Right now i've given the username and password used while creating a new database inside mysql. What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance...
Do not use "localhost" as the hostname for your database-driven websites. Once you have successfully created a database, your host name displays on the Database Information page of your hosting Control Panel.
To Find the Host Name for Your Database
Log in to your Account Manager.
Click Web Hosting.
Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Launch.
In the Databases section of the hosting Control Panel, click MySQL or MSSQL depending on the database type for which you want the host name.
From your list of databases, click Actions next to the database you want to use, and then click Details.
Your database host name displays in the Hostname field.
On shared go daddy DB's you can't use localhost for the $dbhost
you will need to use the location specified in your godaddy mysql cp
I have developed a web application that uses PHP and MySQL and has all been running fine from a single development server. I now want to separate things a bit and place an app server within Amazons cloud that will receive and process uploaded files. The database is going to remain on the dedicated server but will need to be accessed by the EC2 instance.
Heres what I have tried so far...
In phpMyAdmin I added a new user to the privileges table. I gave it the elastic IP address from AWS as the host name, a new password and granted privileges to INSERT, SELECT and UPDATE.
In the PHP scripts on my EC2 based app server I included this username, password and the domain name of the location of the mysql server (example.domain.net) when connecting with mysql_connect
I have a simple test page that tries to SELECT and echo some results from the database but get the following error -
Could not connect to MySQL: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'example.domain.net' (4)
What could this mean, what have I missed, are there any other issues such as trying to do this from within EC2 that will cause other problems?
cheers all
Turns out the only other thing I needed to do was to open port 3306 on the database server to allow access. Did this by going to Control Panel -> Windows Firewall -> Exceptions -> Add Port ["SQL", 3306]
Now it works great!
