error on remote connection to mysql
- by Ahmet vardar
Hi,
I ve been trying to connect my dedicated server mysql db from my computers localhost
my code is here;
$dbhost = 'domain.com';
$dbuser = 'username';
$dbpass = 'pass';
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
$dbname = 'dbname';
mysql_select_db($dbname);
I get that error
Could not connect: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61
Dedicated server is Linux centos 64 bit, php 3.2.4, mysql 5.1.54
Is there any workaround that ?
Thanks
