Is there a way to use a php server as a database?

I am attempting to make a small mafia style game, and I am using replit. Would there be a way to use a php server (or an html server) as a database that I can connect to from a python project?

HTML nor PHP are databases. The "LAMP" stack uses PHP with MySQL / MariaDB for its database, which might be what you're referring to... However, the "P" there could also be Python ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What you need in Python is a Data Persistence layer, which could just be a simple CSV / JSON file; however pickle module is easier to work with native Python types.
sqlite module can be used if you want the data to be more portable to other frameworks/languages.
And the final option is to actually run your own database server externally and expose it over a remote TCP / HTTP API connection (I don't think Repl.it supports running Docker containers).

If you have access to the actual machine, you can run something like SQLite on the machine. You are running dangerously close to needing more security and what not though.
Security is important, but if you just want to "play around" running something like SQLite should answer your initial pass.

how to create a multiple connection with advantage database server at same time?

I am trying to integrate alongside an existing application that uses ADS as its database.
When i connect my integration app using the code below it connects fine until i try and run the original application at the same time. It seems to only allow one connection, my application seems to hold the connection and block all others. Yet i can have multiple instances of the original application running conncurrently with no issue. Which leads me to believe that its the way in which i am trying to correct from my c# app. The error im getting when the original app is open and i then try to connect with my integration app is "The Advantage Data Dictionary cannot be opened. axServerConnect" .
Error 7077: The Advantage Data Dictionary cannot be opened. axServerConnect
Anyone any suggestions? How to create a multiple connection at same time?
Python code:
conn = adsdb.connect(DataSource=str(dbpath[0]), ServerType='local',
UserID = config.ADS_USERNAME, password=config.ADS_PASS)

According to this page in ADS documentations, you can use connection pooling by providing pooling=True to your client connection arguments.
I think using this approach, you will be able to open multiple connections at the same time.
Edit
After checking adsdb python script, I think it does not support connection pooling. You probably be able to set that connection pooling in your C# application.

from Sqlite3 to Mysql in django chatbot website

i'ev developed a chatbot web application using Django and python3 on web faction server. Basically the chatbot interacts with a store's users as a customer server.It uses the REST API to POST the user input and GET to display the chatbot output and a python file to process the input and find the output.
How the chatting works:
1. chatboy.js: it first POST the user input in the API then run the python file chabot.py.
2. chabot.py: a python file that connects to the Django backend db.sqlite3 and the conversation.sqlite3. So it select the user input from db.sqlite3 then select the matching output in the conversation.sqlite3. Finally the file will update the chatbot output in the db.sqlite3.
3. chatboy.js: will GET the last chatbot output and display it.
In development stage when i was testing the application in my local server everything works fine but problems came we i deployed the Django project in the internet. Mostly and the main ERORR that stops the application form working is :
The database is locked
I did many research and found out that:
sqlite3 is not for production and only for small or stand alone application.
sqlite3 have a multiple threads problem.
not good for realtime chatting application.
Some suggestion said either
switch all the sqlite3 to Mysql ( but how? and how i can change the sql queries in the python file to fit Mysql)
use a fast key value store like Reddis ( does it mean to make it the backend db form my project or juts the conversation.sqlite3?)
please help me because it is very frustrating and i had this error for a long time and i couldn't found and solution for the problem.
thank you,
PS: i'm using Django 10 , python3 , sqlite3, web faction server

You only need to update your settings file to change the DATABASES setting from sqlite3 to mysql or postgresql. But before you do that you will need to create a database in your Webfaction Control Panel (more information here).

Sending Data using Python

I Have a Python application which analyses data from multiple sources in real time. Once the data is analyzed the result of the analysis is stored in a database along with a time-stamp of when it was analyzed.
I would like to access the most recent result of this program remotely from another computer.
I was thinking about using python sockets and having a server script running on the main computer which runs the application and then that way I can access the data using a client script on another computer.
Is there a better way of doing this? Or are there any other solutions out there that can address this need?

Your question is very broad.
Most DB servers will provide a method/API to access the data remotely. You can use Python as a client if there is a DBAPI module for your DB that supports remote access over the network. For example if you are using Postgres you could use the psycopg2 module.
If you are using a simple DB such as SQLite then you might be able to use an ODBC driver. Some alternatives are here.
Edit
mongodb provides an API, pymongo.

In the end Redis was the best solution. Considering the original question The goal was to be able to send data in real time from one computer to another. Solutions such as Redis or RabbitMQ successfully accomplish this.
With Redis a server can be setup and it can publish messages to the network, clients can then subscribe to data channels and receive the messages in a queue
This Python library was used as a python Redis client :

Create AD Users from a client Computer (remotely)

Is there a simpler way to establish a connection to Active directory from a client computer? Ideally I would like to create AD users from an MS Access db on a client computer. The Client and DC Server are located locally. I have explored different ways to accomplish this using VBA and Python but never seem to establish a connection to our Active Directory even to pull simple user information. Do I need to install the LDAP on the sever or is there another way without installing anything on server. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Active Directory supports an LDAP dialect. You don't need to "install LDAP" to make LDAP requests or create users. You just need permission. If you can't even pull data, you're doing something wrong, and you need to fix that. Perhaps you could post some code?
To pull information from AD into Access using VBA, you can use ADO or LDAP or WMI objects, amongst others:
GetObject("ADO ...
or
GetObject("LDAP ...
or
GetObject("WMI ...
To create new users in Access VBA, you could do something like
Set root = GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE")
Set obj = GetObject("LDAP://CN=Users," & Root.Get("defaultNamingContext"))
Set NewUser = obj.Create("User", "cn=" & strNewUser)
NewUser.Put "sAMAccountName", strNewUser
NewUser.Put "sn", strNewUser
NewUser.Put "displayName", strNewUser
NewUser.SetInfo
NewUser.SetPassword "password"
