Hi Mark, I contacted RR about their MySQL lesson and they sent me updated
connection parameters:
put "runrev.com" into tDatabaseAddress
put "runrev_test" into tDatabaseName
put "runrev_example" into tDatabaseUser
put "example" into tDatabasePassword

Yes I do as well. However this is considered in the industry a non-secure way
of connecting to mySQL because of all the exploits that are out there. We use a

which is managed from a "secure" mySQL server running on a L

Hi Mark,
What made you think that you could use the RunRev server to test your own
MySQL scripts? Have you got any documentation from RunRev about this?

Richard,
I agree that RevServer could come with some scripts. A collection of sample
scripts to get you started with databases wouldn't go amiss.

Hi Doc,
the server engine is perfectly capable to connect to the databases that are
supported in the desktop engine. At least for postGres and mySQL I know for
sure as I am using those two. :-)
What you can not do in most cases, is connect from a desktop app to some remote
database, unless you

But they can. I have the full developer pack and a runrev server

Hi Richard,
RunRev Ltd. can't guess which language you're going to use for the server side.
Therefore, they can't deliver those scripts. If they started delivering such
scripts, then they would also have to deliver server-side scripts for web
forms, e-mailing, uploading files, etc. Surely, it w

Most web hosting companies have one or more MySQL-eneabled offerings, but only
a few of them allow you to connect remotely to their database, and most doesn't
allow you to add users. I.e. all users will run as the same user. What you need

Hi Mark, I think the part that confused me was the line "RunRev has set up a
sample database which these scripts will use". T
Thanks Mark. I'm new to the server stuff so was not familiar with the
process. LC has a lesson where they suggest you can connect to MySQL
directly on their site (I think) but maybe I am misunderstanding them.

Hi Mark,

Usually, web hosting companies don't allow remote connections. You need a
script on your server as a layer between LiveCode and MySQL, which i
Are you sure that your tunnel is working?
I'm assuming that for some reason SSL is not an option, neither is a VPN.
You should be able to tunnel a database connection through a SSH tunnel.
I've done it many times with different kinds of databases and servers
(although never with MySQL).
Can you p
In the past, when I was creating a php database and needed to test
it, but did not want to open the floodgates and allow any IP address in,
or if I was moving around from place to place
and my IP would change
depending on where I was, tunnelling was an option with some software.

Thanks, Bob. I have to confess that I'm not well educated in networking. I'm
a regular guy who uses livecode to facilitate tasks I perform at work.
Here's a wikipedia article (yeah, know its limitations as a reference
source) that includes an explanation of SSH tunneling.
