Yes, if you have things setup correctly.
In your MySQL server create a database for SlimServer to use. It can
have any name you like. Then create a user and give the user all
permissions to that database.
Stop SlimServer and edit the slimserver.pref file. Modify the
following three lines with the username and password, the host IP
adress and port and the MySQL database name. Use 127.0.0.1 for the
hostname if the MySQL server is running on the same machine as
SlimServer.
Code:
--------------------
dbpassword: your_dbuser_password
dbsource: dbi:mysql:hostname=192.168.9.4;port=3306;database=your_dbname
dbusername: your_dbuser
--------------------
Make sure your MySQL is running and then start up SlimServer.
SlimServer should create all the necessary tables within the database,
then begin scanning your library.
