Access to MySQL database from another application

Added by richard urrutia over 14 years ago

Hello,
I'm using Redmine 0.9.2 on Windows 2008. I used the Bitnami Full installer (http://bitnami.org/stack/redmine).
Now, I want to read the MySQL database from another web site installed on another server.
But it seems that the MySQL database is not accessible. My application doesn't see the database.
When I run the web site on the same server on put on the connection string the server Name "Localhost" it works fine.
The 2 servers (redmine server and my application server) are on the same LAN.
How can I do to see the MySQL database from another server ?
Thanks

That is a mysql problem, and I'm not sure how much I can help with a windows install, but I suppose the bitnami stack configures mysql so that it is not accessible through the network as a security measure. Please have a look at the mysql config, and if there is no limitation in there, make sure your user has the permission to connect from somewhere else than localhost (mysql user can be limited in the hosts from which they make the connection).
