Re: Root is tryng to resolve to a Chinese IP address

TNX for the response. A basic explanation. The web development software for this site has a lenghty and detailed PHP setup script. It starts with a PHP test, then a MySQL server test. If either one fails you cannot continue the script. The SQL test requires HOST/localhost, USER/xxxxx, PASSWORD/......., DATA NAME/Data01. I then click the test button and if all is well, the software automatically sets up the data file and tables. If not, the setup will not continue. I am using outside hosting of the site until I resolve the problem on my servers. When I do this test on my server, I get "connection suceeded, table created. When I go to the sql data directory I see it has added 3 blank scrips, but no data. Then below there are three server entries. One is Texmark01.err. That is were I get the information I sent to you.

But my knowledge of PHP and SQL configurations is minimum. I understand your recommendations, but do not know where and how to appy. It never occured to me that it might be a scam. It would have come in through either the Microsoft or Oracle installation software. I do not think the server is contaminated as I reloaded the operating system and reinstalled the php and sql software at leasat 8 times in the past two weeks.

Thanks again Peter for your advice. I will keep investigating this. No an emergancy situation has I have the external hosting paid up for non more months.
