      What exact error message do you get from your QSqlDatabase object ?

        Hey, I started SQL today and I was wondering why it says db isn't open. Note: I had trouble with another error saying the driver wasn't found or something and I added a bunch of files to system PATH. Here is my code.

        void w::database(){
        QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
            db.setHostName("Host");
            db.setDatabaseName("Name");         /* In my real code, I set the real
            db.setUserName("Username");               stuff here */
            db.setPassword("Password");
        
            if (db.open())                                             
            {                                                                        
                QMessageBox msgBox;                         
                msgBox.setText("DB OPENED");          
                msgBox.exec();
        
            }
        
        
            QSqlQuery query(db);
            query.prepare("INSERT INTO person (Username, Password, summ, Email) "  
                              "VALUES (:user, :pass, :summ, :mail)");
            query.bindValue(":user", Username);          // I do have variables set earlier
            query.bindValue(":pass", Password);
            query.bindValue(":summ", summ);
            query.bindValue(":mail", Email);
            query.exec();
        
        }
        

        For some reasons, when I press the button (which launch this method) if I have the db.open part, It "doesn't respond". Help anyone... I searched on internet but didn't find anything that solved my problem...
        Thanks

            QSqlQuery query(db);
            query.prepare("INSERT INTO person (Username, Password, summ, Email) "  
                              "VALUES (:user, :pass, :summ, :mail)");
            query.bindValue(":user", Username);          // I do have variables set earlier
            query.bindValue(":pass", Password);
            query.bindValue(":summ", summ);
            query.bindValue(":mail", Email);
            query.exec();
        

        The mistake is not giving you anything error?

        please #include "QSqlError" and

         if (db.open())                                             
            {                                                                        
                QMessageBox msgBox;                         
                msgBox.setText("DB OPENED");          
                msgBox.exec();
        
            }
        else{
               qDebug() << db.lastError()
         }
        

        By doing so we can understand what the problem is about anyway...

        Do what you want.

          @Taz742 QSqlError("2003", "QMYSQL: Unable to connect", "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'adress.here' (10060)")
          Is the error...

            Did you check that the user you are using to connect to the database can be used for remote connections ?

                I tried it on another server and it gives the following error..

                QSqlError("2005", "QMYSQL: Unable to connect", "Unknown MySQL server host 'mysql.hostinger.fr' (0)")

                  Again: are you sure you are allowed to establish a remote connection to the database?

                  • check user permission
                  • check if port is correct
                  • check if port is reachable from remote

                    2003 is not a port name, so let's say the title of the problem.

                    Do what you want.

                      It's not a "title", just an qt internal error number. Same with the other code that is a mysql internal error code

                        To add to @the_ : the error state that mysql.hostinger.fr is an unknown host. Looks like you are giving the wrong address.

                          @SGaist When I go to the "remote mysql" part of the site, it gives an access host... do i gotta use this as the hostname ?

                            @RekTek249 If that's what i do, it gives that error:

                            QSqlError("1045", "QMYSQL: Unable to connect", "Access denied for user 'rektek_write'@'*ip here*.' (using password: YES)")
                            

                            If it's a permission problem, what do I need to do ? I have the insert one because that's the only thing I need to do...

                              Is this user authorised to access the database from outside that machine ?

                                @SGaist Well it's a website host.... They wouldn't allow you to create hosts that can only connect on that machine i guess.

                                    @SGaist Alright... I checked something and apparently for remote you need the user's ip. The control panel needs the ip so I guess I can't make this application public because they wont be able to access the database ?

                                      Then implement a REST service to expose what you need for your application.

                                      What exactly are you trying to implement ? Because currently it seems you are trying to do server-side stuff from your application.
