hi jason,
yeah same exact settings for connecteing to db, same host etc
very strange, if you look out there it is a common issue with cs3. cs4 is fine but cs3 not, i tried re installing and turning off firewall but did not work.
port 3306 is open for to connect to mysql database but still error 405 method not allowed comes up.
tried getting help from adobe forums but to be honest their community forums are rubbish and all quite up themselves so no joy so far and by looks of it people have same issue with this being unresolved on forums.
very strange.
i think you are the man to resolve jason :) i believe in you.
