hi group,

we are trying to install midgard (1.4.2-1) on apache with a dedicated
database server. we seem to be the only ones with such a configuration...
nearly nothing to be found in the docs.

we already found out:

mysql libraries are to be installed on the webserver

midgard-data has to configured like
./configure --with-db-host=xxxx -with-db-admin=xxxx -with-db-admin-password=
xxxx...

in midgard-lib-1.4.2-1/src/defaults.h:
#define MGD_MYSQL_HOST "xxxx"


this way following the normal installation procedure all neccessary database
operations are executed on our db-server.

_BUT_: we are not able to access any "midgard-enabled" site via apache. the
configuration directive "MidgardDatabase" has no parameter for the
db-host... I would expect the settings in midgard-lib/defaults.h to work as
default parameters for the database-connection...  they seem to be ignored.
with "MidgardDatabase" set in httpd.conf it tries to connect on the
localhost and complains

"failed to open database 'xxxx' for user 'xxxx'"

without "MidgardDatabase" statement:

"database not defined for xxx"


any suggestions?

thank you in advance
