hello, i'm running php-nuke with mysql on potato with apache. at home, i'm running woody. i have the same set up (apache, mqsql-server, php4, the php-sql package)... at home, i only have a lo (loopback) interface, no eth, no ppp. mysqld starts just fine, no errors. i think i've narrowed down the cause to mysqld not listening on any tcp port. in the conf file for mysqld, i did tell it to listen on tcp port 3306, or whatever the default is. when mysqld is running, netstat doesn't list it anywhere... i think this is my problem.
anyone ever used a similar setup with only lo? tia, jason -- registered linux user #202942 http://counter.li.org/ ---------------------------- http://www.theigloo.dhs.org
