Re: MySQL connect error to an outside database
I spoke too soon...I did not want to mention the web host's name, but here is iPower.com's response:
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We have checked the issue and noticed that you are using database which is not present on our server. Unfortunately, this is not possible to use a database present in external server. You have to create that database on our server in order to resolve the issue.
If you have any further questions, please update the Support Console
I've been running this externally-pointed db script for 8 months!
This is the last straw. First, they blocked data file imports into mySQL (.xls); this made data updating extremely time consuming on my own db...next they blocked PHP scripts pointing to an external domain...now this!
I am so frustrated over these guys...
