Hi Peter, Thanks for your input. Yes MySQL is running and I can access it via command line. I have tried both localhost and 127.0.0.1 and checked / etc/hosts to see if any other abnormalities exist in entries for localhost.
Now when I run: Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 8 5.4.1-betac6#J,=.WOf6tk;%EkjR Now when I try: 192-168-1-101:mysql doronkatz$ telnet localhost 3306 Trying ::1... telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused Trying fe80::1... telnet: connect to address fe80::1: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host Now another note, to test things. I have MAMP instaleld, with MysQL on that. I tried that with a different port setup via MAMP (3307) and I can get to it via openbd. NOTE:: I just tried openbd admin now with 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost and it does work!!! So its working with 127.0.0.1. I know it wasnt working before when I tried that but after re-installing mysql binary from the official site and rebooting, and restarting mysql it is working on that. So for future reference, try both 127.0.0.1 and localhost on the admin, and if all fails, re-install and reboot mysql after doing some backups. Thanks guys! I guess Im all good now, and opening my life to the world of open source, with CFML! Thanks On Aug 1, 10:58 am, "Peter J.
