I have managed to deploy to *PythonAnywhere* (*PA*) the MySQL database in a
matter of minutes!
Then I have re-created the Web2Py , uploaded and installed my application
from the localhost - literally 5 minutes !!
The familiar Web2Py interface was ready like a charm...so the description
of PA in the W2P book as the simplest solution was correct...
Life is good...All is great ...EXCEPT...
What should be the *DAL - database connection definition* when *NOT* *on a
localhost *?
The definitions from the local machine obviously need to change. So I have
tried on PA in db.py:
db = DAL('mysql://
*username:mysqlpassw...@username.pythonanywhere.com/username$default'*)
*username* = the PA username (tried *root* - of course didn't work)
*mysqlpassword* = the pwd for the mysql instance at PA
*username$default = * the database name which is equal to... *username$default
*(tried *localhost* which didn't work)
The above doesn't work and W2P cannot connect to MySQL...
I must be doing something really stupid since I am a newbie with W2P and
PA...
Any ideas ?
