ded Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I use bluehost as my website host. I use php with mySql. Is there a program that will allow me to view mySql databases without having to log into bluehost cpanel? Something that can run right on my PC?

ded Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 What would you suggest as the best FREE one? Workbench? Sequel Pro? Maybe another one? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/250291-view-mysql-on-my-pc/#findComment-1284262 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManiacDan Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 MySQL workbench is just fine. Most of us don't use stand-alone gui tools, or we use the ones built into our pricey development environments. My favorite is Navicat ($100), but the one built into ZDE ($300) is nice too. Otherwise, Workbend or phpMyAdmin should be enough. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/250291-view-mysql-on-my-pc/#findComment-1284264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ded Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 excellent....and thank you. I have to build more editing processing into the admin panel I created for the users, but until i have time to do that, the workbench will work great for me.

This has nothing to do with anything in this thread mysql -u root myDatabase That is the MySQL command line. PuTtY has nothing to do with it. It's like saying "what text editor do you guys use, vi or emacs?" and having someone answer "putty." Putty is a tool that allows you to ssh to a command line. That's its only purpose. The commands you have access to once you're inside another system aren't related to putty at all. Also, the mysql command line is not a MySQL gui.

ManiacDan Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 With the word "view" coming up multiple times, it's safe to assume he wants something graphical. Also, he wants a native client running on his PC. Either way, no sense in arguing about it.
