Hey support...
I am having major troubles, in that I can NOT connect remotely to my mySQL server running on my ded server at ThePlanet.
As I understand things, mySQL was installed via Plesk by support there, when they originlly set up this server back in Dec/04. Subsequent to that, I ordered an upgrade to the Plesk version, and they did that as well.
The mySQL dbase server runs fine, but I am unable to connect to it remotely. I am trying to use the mySQL Administrator with the following credentials....
Server Host : IP number
Port : 3306
UserName : Plesk login name
Password : Plesk password
This data on what to use comes from the Plesk site itself from the SWSoft knowledgebase. Normally, the UserName would be "root" but apparently, installing mySQL via Plesk changes this. So I am attempting to use my working name/password that I use when I log into Plesk on that server.
The above creds do not work...when run, I get an error that says "Could not connect to the specified instance. MySQL Error Number 2003."
What do I need to use to be able to connect to the mySQL dbase remotely please at the "root" or superuser level?
