DBI connect error
Hi,
I have a MySQL server 4.1 running on Win XP. I have connected to it with no problem. Now, I am trying to connect to a remote server using the following code snippet. The error message that I get is confusing:
Why is it trying to connect to localhost when I specify my remote server?
$ perl test.pl
DBI connect('database=db_name; host=my_remote_host; port=3306','user_name',...) failed: Access denied for user 'user_name'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at test.pl line 43
use DBI;
use DBD::mysql;
use DateTime;
my $DSN = "DBI:mysql:database=db_name; host=my_remote_host; port=3306";
$dbh = &connect_db;
sub connect_db
{
my $dbh = DBI->connect($DSN, $user, $password, {RaiseError => 1})
or die "Connection failure";
return $dbh;
}
Thanks.
