Hello there,
I have come upon a problem that has completely stumped me. It is sort of referred to by many others on the net, but their solutions aren't working for me, and the more I dig, the more it is becoming apparent that the problem is not what i think it is...
OS: XP Pro
App: DW MX 2004
Server: Apache 1.3.27
DB: MySQL 4
PHP: 4.2.3
Problem: I have been developing in the this environemnt on my machine quite happily for the last year. Have never had any problems. This afternoon, Dreamweaver suddenly throws up errors when trying to connect to my database. I have about 20 different sites set-up in DW, their configurations have not changed, but none of them have Dreamweaver DB connectivity.
However, I know that my server and DB are working fine, becasue i can surf them and access them perfectly outside of DW.
Symptoms:
1. Live Data view gives me a HTTP Error 2. I know that the testing URL is correct.
Testing Directory c:\phpdev\www\site
URL Prefix:
http://localhost/site
Won't work.
2. Creating a new DB connection: I get the classic HHTP 404 error, path to MMHTTPDB.php?blahblahblah may not be correct, however I and my flatmate have verified the path, and it is correct.
3. When creating editing the site info in Site>ManageSites>MySite>Edit>Basic tab, the test URL button fails on
http://localhost Didn't do that yesterday.
After all this, it apprears that DW isn't communiction properly with my testing server anymore. I know they are running, because I can surf the sites and the DB through
http://localhost in my browser. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Dreamweaver twice, and installing the updater patch. I'm out of ideas...
Any thoughts?
