I have tried the following script but unfortunately doesn\'t work. I am using a free MySQL database provider. Any ideas?

myDB = MySQLdb.conne         


        

Answer 1

open your database in mysql and type the following :

mysql> GRANT ALL ON *.* TO root@'x' IDENTIFIED BY 'Your-password'

where x is the ip address of the user that wants to access your db.
