Which error message? * Check the user account which you intend to use with HeidiSQL. Ensure via PhpMyAdmin the host name has "%". I guess it has "localhost" or similar. * If that didn't help check if the server has set "skip-networking" off by SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'skip_networking%' It must say "Off" to work with external connections like HeidiSQL does. |
