shivabharat Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 You need to tell us more for us to help Is your site hosted in a 3rd part machine? or is that you own the system and planning to build a site? You also need to tell us about the OS you are using. :roll: Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/1475-mysql-databases/#findComment-4860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
