I am trying to install MediaWiki version 1.31 localy and I have run into some issues that I cant get past by. Mainly when I input datatabe connection (I am trying to connect to PostgreSQL database) information it returns this error.
Thing is the port I am trying to connect is 5433 not 5432, also the names "template1" and "postgres" are not included in my input trough the dialogue screen - I dont know where they came from. "test1" is the name of the database I am trying to connect to.
Any help or advice how to get trough this error would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
That the port you specify is not used while setting up the database schema in the first place is a long-standing known bug. One workaround is to run your database on the default port until you have wiki set up, then change it back to the port you want.
In order to create a new database, you need to connect to an existing database in the same cluster. 'template1' and 'postgres' are pre-existing databases (usually created at the time the cluster was created) commonly used to connect to in order to create a new database. These names are "well-known", you don't need to specify them.

Platform: Google Data Studio
Data Source: MySQL
Connection was working before,
meaning no issues with credentials.
All of a sudden, getting the below error:
All IPs have been whitelisted from the google data studio list of ips.
The only thing that comes to mind is a limitation of GDS to process data.
The data source table has around 200K+ rows.
Not sure what is the limitation for GDS with MySQL.
There's no indication anywhere.
Anyone out there can help to solve this or maybe provide some info would be appreciated.
Thanks
If you use a firewall, be sure to double check the Google ip adresses. They may have added new ips (in my case, the last one was missing).
Check them here !
After doing so, I had to change the Host name of the connection to the database for a url alias (www.yourserver.com <- url pointing on your server), and change it back to the IP to make it work.
Sounds like a the connector cannot establish a new connection.
Cloud SQL Connector:
At the time of writing this, the connector seems unable to establish a new connection once the existing one has timed out and modifying the JDBC url to include query parameters gives you an error when authenticating.
This is probably due to the connector appending it's own parameters.
(Seems to be a possible bug here when a connection no longer exists)
MySQL Connector (with IP Address):
This connector allows you to add query parameters to the JDBC url. Enable SSL and append useSSL=true to the url.
e.g.jdbc:mysql://<ip>/<database>?useSSL=true
This worked as expected and establishes new connections when required.
Example Source Setup
Suffering from this issue too, my experience is that using the MySQL connector instead of the Cloud SQL Connector provides better stability in combination with setting wait_timeout to a value above 12 hours.
This issue has been reported on the official Google Data Studio bug tracker. Please vote them up if you are also suffering from this !

(I am a sql noob and I just can not figure this out on my own)
For some time now I have been trying to establish a connection to a SQL database in codename one but to no avail. First I tried connecting to a MariaDB database from one.com. All that's needed for the connection is
Database db = Display.getInstance().openOrCreate("databaseName");
if I am not mistaken, but I am guessing this implies that I have somehow already established a connection to the database. This is not the case however so it creates a new .sql file, right? I can recall that you can connect to a database in the services tab in Netbeans. I chose the MySQL(Connector/ J Driver) which should work with MariaDB, or should it? I entered all my data and i says that it can not establish connection to the database.
the error i get
So I thought I might as well try using localhost. I used XAMPP to host a database and connected in the netbeans services tab.
connected?
Now testing was needed to see if this works. I started the SQL journey with this https://www.codenameone.com/manual/files-storage-networking.html#_sql and integrated the part after "You can probably integrate this code into your app as a debugging tool". I changed database name to "mybase" (it's existance can be confirmed in picture 2). Ran the app, opened the dialog, entered "select ID from customers" and got: java.sql.SQLException: [SQLITE_ERROR] SQL error or missing database (no such table: customers) It does not get past the first call to "executeQuery". The customers table definitely exists so what am I missing to establish connection?
I really need instructions to connect to the localhost database and ideally also to the one hosted by my webhost provider.
Thanks,

The Database class is to access the SQLite DB on the mobile device. To connect to external databases, you'd have to do something different, such as a ConnectionRequest or Socket I think.
I have a Neo4j database using port7474, this database works fine.
Then I got a new database,in the beginning, it also worked, but after several days, it can not start. The error messages show "Failed to start Neo Server on port[80]", so I change the \conf\neo4j-server.properties, from port 80 to port 7474, still can not start.
What is the probelm?
The old neo4j database can still work, what is wrong with the new one?
This error message indicates that there is one neo4j-server.properties file setting the port to 80. Maybe you've downloaded and installed multiple versions of Neo4j to different locations. Use a global search e.g. find / -name neo4j-server.properties (or do the same via point&click when being on Windows) to identify them.
I'm trying to set up mirroring between two sql 2008 databases on different servers in my internal network, as a test run before doing the same thing with two live servers in different locations.
When I actually try and switch the mirroring on the target DB (with
ALTER DATABASE testdb SET PARTNER = N'TCP://myNetworkAddress:5022') I'm getting an error telling me that the server network address can not be reached or does not exist. A little research suggests this is a fairly unhelpful message that pops up due to a number of possible causes, some of which are not directly related to the server existing or otherwise.
So far I've checked and tried the following to solve this problem:
On the target server, I've verified that in SQL Configuration Manager that "Protocols for SQLEXPRESS" (my local installation is labelled SQLEXPRESS for some reason, even though querying SERVERPROPERTY('Edition') reveals that it's 64-bit Enterprise), and Client Protocols for SQL Native Client 10 all have TCP/IP enabled
I'm using a utility program called CurrPorts to verify that there is a TCP/IP port with the same number specified by the mirroring setup (5022) is open and listening on my machine. Netstat verifies that both machines are listening on this port.
I've run SELECT type_desc, port FROM sys.tcp_endpoints; and
SELECT state_desc, role FROM sys.database_mirroring_endpoints to ensure that everything is set up as it should be. The only thing that confused me was the "role" returns 1 .. not entirely sure what that means.
I've tried to prepare the DB correctly. I've taken backups of the database and the log file from the master DB and restored them on the target database with NORESTORE. I've tried turning mirroring on both while leaving them in the NORESTORE state and running an empty RESTORE ... neither seems to make much difference. Just as a test I also tried to mirror an inactive, nearly empty database that I created but that didn't work either.
I've verified that neither server is behind a firewall (they're both on the same network, although on different machines)
I've no idea where to turn next. I've seen these two troubleshooting help pages:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189127.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337361.aspx
And as far as I can tell I've run through all the points to no avail.
One other thing I'm unsure of is the service accounts box in the wizard. For both databases I've been putting in our high-level access account name which should have full admin permissions on the database - I assumed this was the right thing to do.
I'm not sure where to turn next to try and troubleshoot this problem. Suggestions gratefully received.
Cheers,
Matt
I think that SQL Express can only act as a witness server with this SQL feature, you might get better mileage on ServerFault though.
Mike.
Your network settings might be OK. We got quite non-informative error messages in MS SQL - the problem might be an authorization issue and the server still will be saying "network address can not be reached".
By the way, how the authentication is performed? A MSSQL service (on server1) itself must be runned as a valid db user (on server2, and vice versa) in order to make the mirroring work.
I need to convert a named instance of SQL server 2005, to a default instance.
Is there a way to do this without a reinstall?
The problem is, 2 out of 6 of the developers, installed with a named instance. So its becoming a pain changing connection strings for the other 4 of us. I am looking for the path of least resistance to getting these 2 back on to our teams standard setup.
Each has expressed that this is going to be, too much trouble and that it will take away from their development time. I assumed that it would take some time to resolve, in the best interest of all involved, I tried combing through configuration apps installed and didn't see anything, so I figured someone with more knowledge of the inner workings would be here.
I also wanted to convert a named instance to default - my reason was to access it with just the machine name from various applications.
If you want to access a named instance from any connection string without using the instance name, and using only the server name and/or IP address, then you can do the following:
Open SQL Server Configuration Manager
Click SQL Server Network Configuration
Click Protocols for INSTANCENAME you want to make available (i.e. SQLExpress)
Right-click TCP/IP and click Enabled
Right-click TCP/IP and go to Properties
Go to the IP Addresses tab
Scroll down to the IPAll section
Clear the field TCP Dynamic Ports (i.e. empty/blank)
Set TCP Port to 1433
Click Ok
Go to SQL Server Services
Right-click your SQL Server (INSTANCENAME) and click Restart
This will make the named instance listen on the default port. Note : You can have only one instance configured like this - no two instances can have same port on the IP All section unless the instance is a failover cluster.
As far as I know, no. One reason is the folder structure on the hard drive; they will have a name like MSSQL10.[instancename]
This is why a lot of companies store their applications' connection strings at the machine level instead of the application level.
Just take the connection string out of the source code entirely. Then have everyone put their connection string in their machine.config.
This has the added benefit of avoiding unnecessary app-specific environment logic, i.e. when you copy your application to the staging server, the staging server already "knows" what database to use.
The only way to change the instance name is to re-install - uninstall and install as default instance.
A lot of times I'll use client alias to point an application at a different sql server than the ones it's connection string is for, esp. handy when working on DTS or an application with a hard coded connection string. Have everybody use a commonly named alias, use the alias in the connection string and point the alias’s on each dev box to the to the different instances. That way you won't have to worry about if the server is the default instance or not.
You shouldn't ever really need to do this. Most software that claims to require the default instance (like Great Plains or Dynamics) doesn't actually.
If you repost with your situation (installed X, then Y, but need to accomplish Z) I bet you'll get some good workarounds.
I think you can migrate your data from Sql Server without having default instance installed. You can just specify the port number of your Sql Server instance in Oracle Sql Developer and you can connect just using the server name, not using the server name and the instance.
Like this:
connect to "MYSERVER, 1433"
