I can't get connected to the database using DW CS6 and the WA Database connector

I can connect if i write the script, but then I don't have the ability to use the Server Behaviors tab.

Can you provide more information and let us see the code? (Remove the database login details before posting)

Is it a local or remote database you're trying to connect to? Are you using a mySQLi connection? CS6 is very old now so not sure if that may be an issue.

Thanks for your help. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

I switched to a different hosting company and now able to get a connection to the database, but I get a lot of errors when DataAssist pages. I created a insert page with just 2 fields and even though it worked, I got a lot of errors and I'm unable to modify the page.

I am on Dreamweaver CS6. I also have Dreamweaver 2021 but I haven't tested it yet. PHPMyAdmin ver 5.4
I did use MySQLi for the connection

if you can provide the page minus any person info I could could take a look at it if its only 2 fields it would probably be not to hard to see what's going on

It is showing floaters missing. There may be corruption in DW.
See this thread: https://webassist.com/forums/posts.php?id=47226

I looked at your insert page and all seems in order.
Your error1 page shows that error.
