Question
Path to Database - Very specific Issue
The Cliche statement: I’m new.
Basically, I’m migrating from an “easy” host (Where they so all the magic and you enjoy). I really like this system much better because you have a better understanding of what goes on behind the scenes.
Now here’s where the issue is - I’m not exactly sure where my database even is. By that I mean, the URL/Location that the database can be accessed from for querying.
Before, it was located at mysql.{sitename}.com. There, I could link to the database for querying AND access PHPMyAdmin via my browser.
Now, I’ve installed PHPMyAdmin here, which can be accessed via {ip-address}/phpmyadmin
The question: What do I need to do in order to access my database AND PHPMyAdmin from mysql.{sitename}.com? I’m aware of how rewrite rules work and such, but again, the environment I worked in previously shielded you from the technical stuff.
At the time I’m still waiting for my previous host to cope withthe fact that my URL no longer points towards their servers, so I’ll have to stick the IP until then.
