////////////////////////////////////
depot>mysql -u root -p
///////////////////////////////
Settings in database.yml file
development:
adapter: mysql
database: depot_development

mysql not recognized because it's installed on another server.
example of using mysql at ruby wrote softsea, anyway use right host in my = Mysql::new
To connect from a PHP script, just put this in your file::
<?
mysql_connect("db.YOURDOMAIN", "DBUSERNAME", "DBPASSWORD");
mysql_select_db("DBNAME");
?>
using the same substitutions for the bold terms as above, plus substituting DBPASSWORD with your own mysql password.
where DBNAME, DBUSERNAME, and DBPASSWORD are your database name, database username and database password, and where YOURDOMAIN is your website's domain name with no "www." in front, for example, "mysite.com", or if you are not hosting your own domain name with us, then "mysite.modwest.com".
