<quote> The default hostname is localhost. For client programs on Unix, the hostname localhost is special. It causes the client to connect to the MySQL server through a Unix socket file. This occurs even if a --port or -P option is given to specify a port number. To ensure that the client makes a TCP/IP connection to the local server, use --host or -h to specify a hostname value of 127.0.0.1, or the IP address or name of the local server. You can also specify the connection protocol explicitly, even for localhost, by using the --protocol=tcp option. </quote> so this is a feature of mysql setting this bug as invalid -- MySQL Query Browser ignores port number https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155466 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
