Connections do not disply in recordset creation box

Both Dreamweaver CS6 and Dreamweaver CC

When I try to create a recordset in the Bindings Panel, no connections display in the dropdown connection box.

There are several connections files in the connections folder.

Those connections work fine for php files that I have embedded in my Joomla-based site.

I just recently transferred my site to a new linux-based host.

I can connect and transfer files, etc., in Dreamweaver, but dynamic connections don't work.

Any suggestions?

    DO NOT USE the old server behavior panels.  They were removed from DW for a reason.  The code is outdated, not secure and incompatible with PHP7.

    From your narrative, I make the assumption that you are using Dreamweaver on a remote server. If that is the case, did you change the Site Setup when you moved to the new server? Does this new server run the same version of PHP as the old one?

    Please keep in mind that PHP 7 will not work with the depricated Server Behaviors panels and that the SB panels will not work on Dreamweaver after version CC2015 no matter which version of PHP is used.

    I am using PHP 7.

    If the CS6 doesn't work, how do I create a connection and recordset in the new DreamweaverCC?
