I run a game server for a game called Ultima Online. This server has the ability to access MySQL databases. First, I couldn't get it to access the MySQL database for my host, bravenet, so I gave up on that. I went through all the setting up for MySQL on my own computer and then set up the php scripts to go to my own MySQL database. When I upload these php files to my server, they absolutely refuse to connect to my database. I can do it by going into mysql.exe -h -u -p
And that works fine.
I'm gonna restate my issue:
I made a MySQL database.
I uploaded scripts that attach to the MySQL database.
They won't attach to my MySQL database, but it works fine if I use the one provided.
If I use the one provided, my server for Ultima Online won't attach to the database provided by Bravenet.
Is there any way I can fix this or is this Bravenets firewalls and etc. kicking in and not letting me do this?
"Do you currently allow out-going connections via PHP?
We do not allow out-going connections at this time, the exception to this is that we do allow connections to other providers MySQL databases."
Nevermind. This is the end of my business with bravenet.
