webent Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I am running mysql version 4.1.22-standard-log on Cpanel version 11.18.3-STABLE Hi, I'm not sure if the title of this post really covers what I'm really trying to get across... I'm needing to know that, if I have a server, can I create a mysql database that can be accessed by any domain that I set up on that server? For instance, hypothetically speaking, let's say I have a very large database of information that needs to be updated daily, instead of a couple hundred cron jobs on each domain having to get the exact same update separately, which would have to be in the middle of the night, all at the same time, could I have a mysql database like in the root to where any domain can access it, so that just that one database needs updating, thus saving disk space, bandwidth, resources, and technical setup.

webent Posted June 22, 2008 Author Share Posted June 22, 2008 Never tried it before, but sure enough, you can access any mysql db on the server from any domain on that server using that db connection information... So, that's solved... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
