From: rob at beagrie dot com Operating system: Windows Vista RC2 PHP version: 5.2.0 PHP Bug Type: MySQL related Bug description: Cannot connect to remote databases
Description: ------------ mysql_connect fails to connect to any remote MySQL databases under Vista RC2 running PHP 5.2 and apache 2.2 (even with all firewalls etc turned off), but the same script works on XP and will connect to localhost. Bug also reported (by someone else) at the MySQL bug database: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=24212 Seems likely to be a security issue in vista but I thought I should flag it up since it could become a problem once more people start to switch. Reproduce code: --------------- if ($sdbc = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass)) { echo "database selected"; } else { echo"Could not connect to MySQL!<br />MySQL Error: " . mysql_error(); } Expected result: ---------------- database selected Actual result: -------------- Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on '****' (10060) in **** on line 16 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39549&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=39549&r=mysqlcfg
