Hi Roger, each machine has its own Database Server, so localhost would be correct. I can connect to the database on each machines localhost. I got the UBUNTU server running again, now it is only the windows machine that is acting up. I reinstalled apache and updated to the 5.0 engine to no avail. Seems the .dll does not get loaded. I can connect to mysql, sqllite and ODBC complains with a different error message. just postGres returns invalid database type now.
Simplified the script to this: <?lc put revopendatabase("mysql","127.0.0.1","grabung","postgres","postgres") ?> --> Reports "Can't connect to MySQL server as there is none, but the external is working <?lc put revopendatabase("postgresql","127.0.0.1","grabung","postgres","postgres") ?> --> invalid database type <?lc put revopendatabase("sqlite","127.0.0.1","grabung","postgres","postgres") ?> --> 1 <?lc put revopendatabase("odbc","127.0.0.1","grabung","postgres","postgres") ?> --> some MS error about not finding the datasource... Grmbl... Thanks for your time anyway!
