Lorddrago Posted March 2, 2004 Posted March 2, 2004 I am working on an application in VB6 that I want to connect to mysql that I have hosted here. Problem I am haveing is configureing my ODBC, I entered all my information correctly I.E. host, data base name, password port 3306 but when I test it it comes back with access denied. anyone have a clue.

Qinau Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 If you haven't already you'll need to add your local PC as an access host in the mysql admin section of cPanel. Resolve the IP address of your net connection and add that as the access host rather than a wildcard entry. Mysql just assumes 'localhost' is trying to gain access if you're only using the username and password, which of course your local pc is not the 'localhost'. Cheers Quote
