LGWyant Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I know this should be common knowledge, but can you access an SQL database site with a program using sqlite, or is that the way it's supposed to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I know this should be common knowledge, but can you access an SQL database site with a program using sqlite, or is that the way it's supposed to work?I'm confused by this question. You're asking if you can access an sql database on a certain site with the program sqlite? As far as I know SQLite is a database engine and probably can only access its own database. Can you clarify the question a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spawn622 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I'm confused by this question as well. Whoever hosts your site should give you a control panel that lets you setup your database(s) and you point whatever program or blog software you want to use to that database. Here at Gamercide I run 2 separate databases, one for the site and one for the forum. I'd also say, whoever you go with for hosting, make sure they have a good backup system. Whether it be automated or manual, backups, as we found out here at Gamercide are a MUST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGWyant Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 Yes i remember that from when the ATC site went down for quite awhile because of a lost server issue. The question pertains to a program that i'm writing that uses sqlite ..... but all the hosting sites just say sql 4 or 5. I can't find anything that states they correlate so i wondered if any of my techie friends knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 sql 4 or 5 is likely referring to mysql. There are sqlite hosts but the program looks setup for less traffic intensive use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogey Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Anytime I've programmed in SQL (only a handfull of times, by no means an expert) I've used SQL Server 2008 via Visual Studio 2008. I don't know if that answers your question or not though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
