Question

Dreamweaver CS3 Not Seeing MySQL 5 Database Verified in CF8

Hello!! Is there something simple I'm missing about why Dreamweaver CS3 isn't seeing a properly connected and verified MySQL database source as verified by ColdFusion 8 admin? When I go to the Databases tab in Dreamweaver CS3, I get the usual 1. Create a site for this file, which already has one and it is a Coldfusion defined site. Puzzled.

What could I be overlooking? or do I need to tell Dreamweaver something else to point to ColdFusion correctly beyond the Site Definition statement of using ColdFusion?

Thanks for any help!

Solved the problem myself. I had to go into the Bindings tab and specify a datasource from there by selecting the Datasource name variable and it prompted me to login and connected everything. Is there a better way to do this than how I just did it?

This was a first time configuration for CF 8 and MySQL on this machine, so perhaps it was just a first time event??
