Hello All,

I have a MySQL instance running in a VirtualBox XP instance on my laptop.
I am trying to use it for my design-side db connection.
My question is must it be ODBC? Since my VirtualBox instance has everything my target production server has I would like the two to be consistent, if that makes any kind of sense.

Hmmm...

I am sorry. Maybe I am missing something but this does not make sense to me.

Can you explain why this is something you wanna do???

Is your CCS Publish for local development publishing to the Virtual Box httpd server???

Help us understand

Hi bannedone,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

The short answer is "yes", For my local development I use VirtualBox for all my database servers that way my laptop does not get bogged down with all the start up/shut downs. It is much easier to manage this way, plus cloning environments for development is a snap. Sucks up a lot of disk space though...

Does that make sense? Did I answer your question?

For Develop:


ASP
CCS4.3 You coudl Use ODBC with the VirtualBOX IP
CCS5 ODBC Dissapred for Develop


in PHP you Should use native Conection with CCS4.3 and CCS5

Use local DNS. On Winblows, that would be in the
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. On Linux, that would be /etc/hosts.

Point them both to the appropriate IP. Then in CodeCharge you'll
specify the DNS name of the database location.

i hate missing ODBC in CCS5

i have to create around 45 DNS
and the worse part is when you have to copy your project from laptop to the Desktop computer
now you have to create again more DNS, etc.

Still i use ODBC for the Serverside so.
