This mysql newbie is having trouble connecting to a mysqld instance,
hoping someone can offer a clue on troubleshooting.
I have 2 mysql 5.0.45 installations on one RHEL server. One live mysqld
is setup in what appears to be a relatively standard installation, port
3306, user 'mysql', etc. I've set up the other mysqld to run tests on a
non-standard port 5045, user 'testsql', different data root, config,
logs, etc.
When I attempt to connect to the mysqld running on port 5045 from the
command-line mysql client on the same host as follows ...
# mysql -P 5045
... it seems I'm actually connecting to the live server on 3306 because
'show databases' shows the live databases. How can I troubleshoot this
best?
Thanks.
