Hi All,
I am facing a particular problem which i have explained here. Can
you please let me know a solution for this.
>From my web application, I am trying to connect the MySQL server by
using the IP address as the server name, and it says the following
error:
"Host 'abc.def.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server"
Options that I tried: (from the information availabe on internet)
a) I tried modifying the hosts file in WinNT directory to include this
host name (assuming that it was not understanding the IP), but it did
not work
b) I tried adding a record with the IP as host and user as root in user
table of mysql database it did not work
c) I tried adding a record with the 'abc.def.com' as host and user as
root in user table of mysql database it did not work
d) I tried enabling "Remote Access" in MySQL Server instance config
wizard but since the root users password is not set, it is not allowing
me go forward (i.e. the next button is disabled)
e) If I try to reset the password while configuring the MySQL Server
Instance, it does not allow me to do so
f) I tried adding a record with the '%' as host and user as root in user
table of mysql database it did not allow me to add the record
Regards
Ahmad
