Be sure to eliminate password/version issues. There was a change from 16-characters to 40-characters. Your new service provider may have a different version installed. You can check the on-line MySQL manual under "old passwords".

I thought that this was their problem but it's stranger than that. If I use the database query builder then the connection is made and I can see the tables and fields and can query the database. When I try to do the same thing in my own stack - and those of other people who use MySQL - I get connection errors. What I'd really like to do is get inside the database query builder to find out what commands it is using to connect to my database. Alternatively, can someone provide some tips about the port variable in the revopendatabase function? I'm just putting the port number as a colon and number immediately after the host url and I'm sure this is right, eg :3337. Is there any other way to write it? Also, I don't want to use the database query manager all the time because I intend to distribute this as a standalone to users of the MySQL database.
