ID: 43812 User updated by: graced at wingsnw dot com Reported By: graced at wingsnw dot com Status: Assigned Bug Type: MySQLi related Operating System: Debian lenny/sid PHP Version: 5.2.5 Assigned To: andrey New Comment:
Clarification: Warning: mysqli::real_connect(): (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'wadmin'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/.../- on line 6 'wadmin' was the username I was connecting with (I missed it when sanitizing my.cnf values), NOT my current login name (which is what PHP and mysql both default to otherwise). Just in case it matters. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-11 03:32:02] graced at wingsnw dot com Description: ------------ my.cnf files allow the username/password/hostname and other connection information to be stored for later use. The Mysqli extension accepts a username from the file (overriding the default of the current login username) but not a password, thus it attempts to connect with no password even when a password is specified. The mysql command line client, when pointed at the file using --defaults-extra-file=path/to/file.cnf, successfully connects. Reproduce code: --------------- my.cnf contents: [client] host = localhost user = "username" password = "topsecret" PHP script: <?php error_reporting(E_ALL); $DB = mysqli_init(); $DB->options(MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_FILE, "my.cnf"); $DB->options(MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP, "client"); $DB->real_connect(); Expected result: ---------------- A successful database connection. Actual result: -------------- Warning: mysqli::real_connect(): (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'wadmin'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/.../- on line 6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43812&edit=1
