Hi

When I open media portal on the client and start My tv, I get the message: Connected to TV-server, Unable to connect to database. I have read the suggestions posted in this forum, they did not help.

I use MySQL (nothing is installd on the client).

I tried to configure my router to allow TCP/IP port number 3306 as a virtual server, that did not change anything

How can I dig into where the problem lies. MP on the server works fine. I can ping the IP adress from the client.

[rtv]

at first the log files will help

Did you tick the box "enable remote connection" in sql install, otherwise nothing outside can connect.

Otherwise, as rtv suggested.

Here are the log files if I use the debug feature.

Make sure the firewall on your server does allow incoming connections.

Ping (ICMP) isn't relevant here. A "telnet UNDERETAGE 3306" from your client must be successful as well. If your connection is setup correct your MP should be fine as well.
