[PHP-DB] Access denied for user...sometimes???

2007-02-21 Thread James Garfield
I've got 5.0.27-standard installed on an Intel Mac, using the 
preinstalled version of Apache and my own installation of PHP 4.4.4. I 
use this machine for development work and don't make it available to 
anyone else. I've got an instance of a PHP application running, and it 
works...but not all of the time!!! I created the user that accesses my 
MySQL via the following commands;


use [web_db_name];
grant select, insert, update, delete on *.* to '[new_user]'@'%' 
identified by '[new_password]';


I'm able to do everything expected from the command line mysql tool, but 
on the PHP side it fails more than half of the time:


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for 
user '[new_user]'@'[my_current_dhcp_ip]' (using password: YES) in 
/[path]/[to]/[page]/[on]/[server]/index.php on line 66


This leaves the question: since MySQL is behaving normally otherwise, 
I'm using a host of '%' and my IP isn't changing, does anybody know what 
the problem is with PHP???


TIA,
James

And, as it's only you using mysql from the current machine, you don't need a
network connection to your own machine - use localhost instead of your
dynamic(?) IP, and set skip-networking (or whatever it is called) to on in
your my.cnf file.
