I am coding an application for my company wherein i want to parse the results of a mysql query and display them in my application but i am facing a problem conecting to the database.
the ip address of the server is : 172.30.192.20 and before i can ping it i have to add route on my pc something like this
route add 172.30.192.0 mask 255.255.255.0 172.30.192.56
where 172.30.192.56 is the gateway
Now whenever i try to connect 172.30.192.20 which is where the sql server is running my appplication instead connects to 172.30.192.56
i am coding the application in delphi and have used TmySQL
After this didnt workout i tried an application called SQLwave. I just entered the server ip address and was able to connect to the database without any problems. it seems sqlwave uses mydac which is why even i tried using it but using the default connection options and setting i was still not able to connect. it seems sqlwave uses a custom connection using mydac
i just want to know whats going wrong with my connection
