MySQL "An unidentified error has occurred"

Jul 24, 2012 7:20 PM

I have just purchased Dreamweaver within the bundle of Master Collection CS5.5 Educational.

 

I have been using Dreamweaver since UltraDev days. However I have come up against this problem after installing Dreamweaver and trying to connect.

 

"An unidentified error has occurred"

 

I have used a few programs to identify what messages are being sent out and it appears that nothing is actually being sent from Dreamweaver.

 

I setup the site fine, so I can transfer files back and forth to the web server. The database is on a different server, and I can use MySQL Query to connect to the database from the same PC.

 

I can't seem to find what the issue is. I tried multiple mysql databases on different servers and the same issue. It seems Dreamweaver is not doing anything when I hit Test.

 

Any ideas?

 

Andrew

    Well, I may be a little late on this answer... but maybe it will help. After a few hours of messing with this; I FINALLY figured it out.

     

    First of all, you have to have your site settings as such:

     

    Step One

    Remote Server Settings

    Server Name: *Insert Name

    Connect using: FTP

    FTP Address: yourdomain.com

    Username: yourusername

    Password: yourpassword

    Root:

    Web URL: http://yourdomain.com

     

    Step Two

    Testing Server Settings

    Server Name: *Insert Name

    Connect using: FTP

    FTP Address: yourdomain.com

    Username: yourusername

    Password: yourpassword

    Root:

    Web URL: http://yourdomain.com

     

    Click on the Advanced tab

    Testing server

    Server Model: PHP MySQL

     

    Step Three (this is the tricky part, lol)

    Click on file, then click New.

    Create a NEW, I repeat... NEW PHP page.

    Let it sit.

     

    Step Four

    Now enter your remote SQL settings.

     

    --------------------------

     

    Not sure why... but this worked for me after HOURS of:

    "An unidentified error has occurred"
