RE: [PHP] MySQL-PHP-RAQ4 dilemma!
Hi Steve, Thanks. I have tried this (the line was not there), but still I have my original problem. I am now suspecting it is more than a PHP problem, as I have the same problem with Zope (where I have PHP installed :) but I don't think the MySQL connector is reliant on it!), namely: Error MySQL said: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) So I think it's something wrong with the MySQL somewhere... despite the fact that MySQL is running okay! I have Db Tools querying the Db okay from outside the machine!! Anyway, thanks for the tip.

Re: [PHP] MySQL-PHP-RAQ4 dilemma!
Have you ever connected to MySQL from the local machine? Sounds like a permissions problem, because it appears to be successfully creating the socket. Your user may not be set up to access it from localhost, perhaps just the remote machine. Log in to MySQL as admin/root and execute the following query: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON 'database' TO 'username@localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; Obviously, substitute database, username and password with your specific values. That query will allow the particular user/pass combo to access MySQL from the local machine. Mike Frazer Greg Conway [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Have a look at the output of 'mysqladmin variables' which should have an environment variable which shows the socket location. Also have a look in your php.ini, where there are some settings for mysql connections. -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] MySQL-PHP-RAQ4 dilemma!
Hi all, I'm trying to add MySQL to my RaQ4. It came by default with PHP4 but no MySQL. I've installed all 4 RPMs (including the developer part and everything) of the latest version, and MySQL is working fine. I've got DbTools (fantastic!) to interact with it, no probs. However, I have reason to believe that PHP has been compiled without MySQL support. Namely 'cause phpMyAdmin doesn't work and I'm clutching at the only thing on the install list that I didn't do myself (ie php4 was pre-installed and is built into the GUI, unlike my RaQ3 where I added it in). When I first started tinkering around with adding PHP4 to my other RaQ3, I remember using tarballs with switches to ensure MySQL support was installed. So, my question is, how can I tell if PHP has been compiled with MySQL support or not, and if not, how can I add it in without breaking whatever's already there!! I presume PHP will be an RPM (or even a .PKG?), so can I specify these options within RPM installation? Many thanks for any help.
