Hi.. Please is it possible to share the same database in wampserver between two computers connected locally ?

Question

that is, i have a database in wampserver phpmyadmin installed in a computer. and i have a window application connected to the database. so i have a second computer connected to the first computer via cable and i want it to access the database in wampserver in the other computer to whom its connected to. how can i do it please?

Answer 1

Hi, can you simply connect the second computer to the network and make a mysql connection using as server parameter the first computer IP

Hope it helps you

Answer 2

It may be that your mysql allows only localhost connections. If that’s so you need to add privileges to your ip address which is not recommended.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON database_name.* TO 'user'@'192.168.1.110';

Answer 3

Guillem Padilla should wampserver be install in both computers for database communication between the two?

No, wampsever is used only in the computer where you hosts de dstabase and websites, the other computer just need to connect to the computer which have wampserver installed

Guillem Padilla thanks you very much..

Answer 7

Sure,

If you have access (you have to change apache config from wamp) from one computer to another you just have to put the server ip/phpmyadmin in the browser.
