Database not visible

The other day I created a database in my MySQL Server with phpMyAdmin. All works fine: I can populate the databse etc.. One thing: I DO NOT see this database in HeidiSQL (I can see other previously created databases). How can I resolve this? all answers will be much appreciated, gabriël

You don't need to do anything special to see new databases. Have you done something to hide it within HeidiSQL, like using a database filter or connecting with a restricted user?

I have a suspicion that not HeidiSQL is the culprit but that for one reason or the other the database is not visible from another computer: the database is mounted on a MySQL Server on a Raspberry Pi and HeidiSQL runs on my Win10 PC on the same LAN. the other database I can see is also mounted on the same MySQL Server; Could it be a question of rights on that particular database? gabriël

Yes. Permissions are given to user@host/ip. So if the permissions are not set correctly, you won't see the database running HeidiSQL from another host. For "any" host, you can use "%" as hostname.

Thank you very much for your answer. I am, as you might have guessed, a novice when it comes to SQL databases and rights. I'll try to set permissions as you wrote in your answer. much appreciated, gabriël

Setting the rights on the database "any" host did the trick. Thanks for all the help. gabriël
