Hello and thanks in advance for any assistance.
So my knowledge of how XAMPP and MySQL works is very limited, if not actually non-existent. What I am trying to do is run two separate databases, for two separate functions, using two separate instances of XAMPP on the same host machine, without either database interfering with the other.
When I first noticed the problem, the new database was not filled and the programme filled my server database with this information, essentially wiping all the player data.
My question is, how can I tell one instance of XAMPP to talk to one programme and provide that data to one specific database, so I can use both programmes at the same time? I am guessing that it might be down to the username and password for both or the address and port used for both, but I'm not sure and I can't find a straight answer anywhere.
Thanks again, for any help.
