Connectivity dropped

[h8ids]

Updated all pages. Specifically the PHP database connection code.

Swapping

$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");

to

$db = mysql_connect("system IP", "root", "");

Tested the pages and now they are refusing to connect to the database.

Looked in the MySQL administrator; didn't notice any setting that wouldn't allow a page to connect by specific IP address.

Using MySQL 4.1 and Administrator 1.2.3 rc

The development machine and test machine are the same.

Did you include the port number with the ip?

p.s. you actually changed more than one page before testing to see if it actually works? Gluton for punishment I see

Include the port number with the IP... something like this?

$db = mysql_connect("system IP", "port number", "root", "");

Didn't think that it would be such a big problem.

I RFTM for you, here's the copy/paste:

server

The MySQL server. It can also include a port number. e.g. "hostnameort" or a path to a local socket e.g. ":/path/to/socket" for the localhost.

If the PHP directive mysql.default_host is undefined (default), then the default value is 'localhost:3306'
