Hi, all. Here's the problem, in short: $ telnet localhost 3306 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to acheloos. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host.
The connection is closed immediately; all 4 lines above are output in an instant. Nothing's written in the log files. It's a Debian 3.0 (Woody) with its packaged MySQL 3.23.49, running on databases which were previously on a RedHat 6.2 with a MySQL 3.23.52 binary precompiled by MySQL. Except for the remote connections, everything works perfectly. If I install the 3.23.52 pre-compiled binary on the Debian, keeping the same configuration files, everything's back normal, remote connections working again. But I prefer to use Debian's package. On another Debian 3.0 system the Debian-packaged MySQL runs fine (with databases created there, not from another system). Do you have any idea what might be causing MySQL to silently close the connection? Thanks for the help! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
