If you gave the priv through phpmyadmin, you might want to try running
FLUSH PRIVILEGES to get those new ones to take effect.

[PHP] not able to connect to MySQL

2010-09-20 Thread MikeB
I have defined (just for testing) a user in my SQL named "pubuser" and 
granted it access to a database "publications." Of course I also created 
the database and two tables.


I can access and manipulate the tables via phpMyAdmin and I can log in 
to sql using pubuser via the command-line interface.


I have the following php code:




also I have a test web page:





Connect to SQL



   host: $db_hostname
   user: $db_username
   password: $db_password 
   for database: $db_database";
 print_r($db_server);
 ?>



If I try to run this, it briefly says "connecting to localhost" and then 
indefinitely it says "waiting for localhost..."


If I comment out the connect statement, the rest runs.  What should I 
look for?


Thanks
MikeB
