Hi, Mysql is giving me "connection to database" errors. My database is created. Mysql server is getting started. The problem is with the connection to Mysql server. On command line, it shows connection with localhost. When I try to connect with server host name, it return backs with error - ERROR 1130: Host 'sgmser.dubai.geoquest.slb.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server When I try to connect from the web page it returns back with a message - an error occured when trying to connect to database ..... at localhost..... I am using MySql version 3.21 Can anyone suggest?
