I have created a stored procedure in mysql workbench located on server. I need to call this stored procedure through a vba application located on local machine. I am stuck on it unable to connect to mysql stored procedure. Thanks in advance for responses .
Have you setup a DSN with an ODBC connection yet?
Assuming so - check out simple examples at
It wasn't hard to find this on Google

I'm hosted a MySql database on Amazon RDS, and I'm looking to create a Stored Procedure that will ping my NAS at home and log the results to a table. I'm looking to create a log of my home internet outages.
I'm new to MySql and have no idea how to ping something from a Stored Procedure, and every search on google appears to be on how to ping a MySql server, not how to ping from a MySql stored procedure.
In mssql I can ping using the following method:
DECLARE #pingAddress VARCHAR(200) = 'ping www.google.ca'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell #pingAddress
Is there anyway to achieve the same affect in MySql?
You shouldn't ping or do anything else outside the database in a stored procedure. Stored procedures are for manipulating data in MySQL.
If you want to log your home internet outages, there are services that do that for you, for example https://www.pingdom.com/free
If you prefer to do it yourself with custom code, write an application and host it on a small EC2 instance, or else run a Lambda function on a schedule or something like that.
Here's a blog about how one person did it with a Lambda: https://medium.com/#nzoschke/http-service-health-monitor-w-lambda-a9f475abbbf4
In a native MySQL unextended by user-defined functions, You Can't Do That™.
There may be a suitable set of user-defined functions if you must do it. But doing this sort of thing within a MySQL database is something zealously to be avoided.
Here is the UDF repository.

So there are MySQL Database and Oracle Database. Is it possible to somehow connect to MySQL database from Oracle and call stored procedure with parameters?
hs2n has a very good answer for your problem. I would check him out.
I have hosted a website in godaddy with php/mysql/apache. Now I want to create stored procedure in mysql but find that no options in cPanel for me to do. When I just paste the create sql in cPanel SQL window, it said it need super privileges to do that. After google in the website, it said I can remote connect to godaddy mysql and create in my mysql console workbench. But when I setup in the mysql console, it said it cannot connect after test connection. What should I do? What is the correct steps to do that??
Just make sure your stored procedures are labeled as DETERMINISTIC.
This is an example of an allowed stored procedure form Godaddy help pages :
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `spGetSouls`$$
CREATE PROCEDURE `spGetSouls`()
DETERMINISTIC
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM soul;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
CALL spGetSouls();
There might be something wrong with your account- I was able to create stored procedures on mine. In cPanel, I picked phpMyAdmin and selected on of my databases. There'll be a "Routines" tab showing. I created a new routine (type of procedure) to create a stored procedure and it saved successfully. If this isn't working for you, I'd suggest opening a support ticket
Using MySQL work bench would be the best option. You should be able to connect with the same hostname/IP that shows in cPanel. Try opening a command prompt and running the following:
telnet <cpanel_account_ip> 3306
That should be working (just tested and mine works great). If it's not, you might have a firewall rule blocking it. When you use Workbench, make sure you connect with the database user defined under the MySQL databases. You may need to associate that user with the database (which you can also do from the MySQL databases page in cPanel).
Let us know how it works out!
I need to access a remote Microsoft SQL Server database from a stored procedure in MySQL database.
I googled and found that there is a way to access a remote MySQL using federated tables. But I couldn't find anyway to do access MS SQL Server. My exact requirement is, I need to write a stored procedure which can duplicate all the tables and data from a remote MS SQL server database to a local MYSQL database.
Please help..
In short this cannot be done with MySQL federated engine. However you can setup a link from the remote MSSQL server to a MySQL table using the linked server feature of the MSSQL server.
If you can set this up you can have a scheduled job populate the MySQL tables from the MSSQL server side.
I have done the above setup and it is not to difficult.
I would also investigate some ETL tool to do this as it sounds like a ETL job and not something you want to run via stored procedures.
Good Luck.
How do I create a stored procedure for mysql using VB .NET programmatically?
EDIT:
Apologize to be so brief. I have tried using ExecuteNonQuery provided by MySQL .NET Connector. It prompts me error. Maybe it's because I put "Delimiter $$"?
I know I can create using script (batch file) if I want to send it to my client (as commented below). But my objective is to keep MySQL password safe. So script is not the way.
Connect to the database.
Run the create procedure SQL command using ExecuteNonQuery
