From: Operating system: Any PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: MySQLi related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Allow mysqli to connect to existing socket connection
Description: ------------ I would like a way to allow mysqli to connect to an existing socket connection. My use case: I have a connection to a remote server over ssh. Using ssh2_tunnel() I can create a socket stream to the mysql server. Currently the only way to do this is use the ssh binary to create a listening port on my local machine and point mysqli to that port. I prefer using ssh2 over a direct connection to mysqli because of security reasons. This way I can keep mysql server to listen on localhost only. Also I would get the added bonus of key-based authentication. As I already use ssh2 extensively for filesystem changes on the remote machine I already have the keys in place to do this. >From what I've understood the mysqlnd extension already uses PHP steams internally, so this shouldn't be impossible. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55752&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55752&r=mysqlcfg
