I have been learning some basic MySQL and decided to put it into Python which i have some more experience in. I have got PHP scripts working on this MySQL server so i know the server is working. But every time i connect i get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "E:/Geekster_Bot/Geekster_Bot Code/Geekster_Bot_alpha_API_MySQL", line 6, in <module>
db="MY DATABASE")# name of the data base
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\MySQLdb\__init__.py", line 81, in Connect
return Connection(*args, **kwargs)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\MySQLdb\connections.py", line 187, in __init__
super(Connection, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs2)
OperationalError: (2003, "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql2.000webhost.com' (10060)")
Im really not sure why. I have got the MySQL port (3306) open and like i said, the server/database is working. Any ideas?
This is the code of the entire MySQL connection;
import MySQLdb
db = MySQLdb.connect(host="mysql2.000webhost.com", # your host, usually localhost
user="MY USER", # your username
passwd="MY PASSWORD", # your password
db="MY DATABASE")# name of the data base
#you must create a Cursor object. It will let
#you execute all the queries you need
cur = db.cursor()
#Use all the SQL you like
cur.execute("SELECT * twitch_follows_ign")
#print all the first cell of all the rows
for row in cur.fetchall() :
print row[0]
All the blocked out data is entered correctly.
