Well I want to host a server and it contains a mysql wizard. It asks for the username, database, password, and the host. I can't put localhost because that wouldn't make sense. Any ideas? I've tried, http://www.sweb.99k.org, http://sweb.99k.org, www.sweb.99k.org, sweb.99k.org.

Thanks,
Steven

What do you mean "host a server"? Our MySQL databases are local access only, so only localhost will work.

Could I type in a IP address that hosts my site?

Edit: I could always host my own mysql, it is not a problem. Nvm, I can't

I decided to just post here, instead of making a new topic, since my problem also relates to the MySql

So heres my problem:
I cant connect to the MySql, I have tried every combination of info to input that I could think of, and here are the resulting errors for each one:

I am sure the answer is simple, and I am just over looking it.

Can anyone tell me what i should be entering for these fields?

MySQL host:
MySQL username:

(MySql displays this information, but it hasnt worked for me:
# Server: hosting.zymic.com (Localhost via UNIX socket)
# User: cotd_zzl_org_cotdsql@localhost)

Thanks so much in advance!

First off, are you trying to connect to MySQL remotely via an application? And what are you attempting to install onto your site?

yes I am, and it is for the comments application I want to use on my site hosted here.

MySQL server access is restricted to localhost only, as Alex stated further up.
