    Have you tried connecting to the server by other methods, perhaps the MySQL commandline client from the CF box?

    Does the database run on the same server or a different server?

    If different - firewall? Does MySQL allow remote connections?

    I am using WAMP server 2 which contains MySQL 5.4.01 or whatever version I am running so it is running on the same server.
