[Zope] How-to Connect MySQL database with zope

[Holger Lehmann]

Hi Vikas,

it was kind of tricky ;-)

First: Create DB/User/Password in mysql

Then add a ZMySQLDA in your working folder and name it accordingly, make shure
the id is unique and contains no spaces.
The connection string is as follows:
<databasename>[@<hostname>] <username> <password>

Example:
foo bar baz
would connect to the database named foo on the "localhost" (local being local
for zserver) with the username bar and the password baz.
foo@here bar baz.
would connect to the database named foo in the host named here with the
username bar and the password baz.

When creating/editing the grant tables for mysql make check whether you need to
include the domainname (i.e. here.mydomain.com instead of just here). This was
neccessary for my mysql server. The IP-Adress might work, too.
