I'm running apache 2.2.something locally and am able to notepad a php script that queries mysql so i figure i'm set up right. I keep getting an "unidentified error" when trying to set up dreamweaverMX to connect to my database... any suggestions?

i used to try to connect dreamweaver and my databases. you probably have a permissions error (through what ever port dreamweaver is connecting to the db).

I have similar issues. I have ONE site that I can no longer edit the record sets - NO TABLE FOUND.

This site worked with DW a week ago! I have deleted the Connections folder local and remote, deleted the _mmServerScripts folders local and remote, rebooted the SERVER (in the middle of the day no less!), and rebooted my Mac. I still cannot create a DB connection using the SELECT database button, I get Unidentified Error. I have verfied that the _mmServerScripts folder is back on the server.

So I recreated the connections without testing and re-uploaded them and everything on the web site works fine using a browser. I just can't get DW to see the database and tables.

I created a new site and tried to created a new connection. But I still cannot select the database using the select button.

Other sites in DW work in that I can see the tables in the db connection window. These are on the same server, which should eliminate a MySQL/PHP configuration problem. Besides, nothing on the server has changed.

I'm on a Mac, so that SP2 fix doesn't appy!

OSX 10.4.8, DW 8.0.2, PHP 4.3.10, MySQL 4.1.15
