Hi,
I'm trying to set up a server using Workbench.
I opened MySQL Workbench, clicked New Server Instance, selected Remote Host and firstly put in my hostname (Abysinian-DT).
On the next screen my Connection name was Abysinian-DT, my hostname was the same and I changed the port to 50000 because that's the port required by what i'm trying to do.
I then set the username to Abysinian and clicked next, on the next screen all 3 of the little circles were filled with a red x and in the message log box this appeared:
Connecting to MySQL server Abysinian-DT...
Host 'Abysinian-DT' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server
So I tried using my IP Address instead of hostname and the same message appeared:
Connecting to MySQL server 192.168.1.63...
Host 'Abysinian-DT' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server
I then tried a different port, the default (3306) and a random one, both of which produced this error message:
Connecting to MySQL server Abysinian-DT...
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'Abysinian-DT' (10061)
I then tried selecting localhost on the first screen (after clicking New Server Instance). Leaving the defaults produced this message:
Connecting to MySQL server localhost...
Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (10061)
I then tried using port 50000 and setting a password, on the next screen I entered the password when prompted and was successful:
Connecting to MySQL server localhost...
Connected.
MySQL server version is 5.1.48-community
MySQL server architecture is ia32
MySQL server OS is Win32
Connecting to MySQL server localhost...
Connected.
MySQL server version is 5.1.48-community
MySQL server architecture is ia32
MySQL server OS is Win32
However, would I be correct in assuming that with these settings, only my machine will be able to access this database?
Is there anything I can do to resolve this issue?
ALSO, I am setting this up to hold a database for an online game I am in the process of producing, that is why it is important for this to be able to be accessed by others and the program I am using as a server (from http://www.etfictum-fitfactum.net/vampyr/) called Telam Ludus requires port 50000.
Thank you,
Andy
