Bug description: mssql_connect() fails to connect to server
Description:
------------
I've been having some issues with mssql_connect. I'm trying to connect to
an MS-SQL 2000 database from PHP on a Linux server running PHP 5.1.6, but
the mssql_connect() function always gives me the same error message saying
it can't connect to the server.
I also tried connecting to the same server from my local machine (Windows
XP Pro, PHP 5.2.5) with the same results. However, I wrote a quick python
script using pymssql and that worked fine from this machine. I also set up
an ODBC connection on this machine and connected from PHP via
odbc_connect(), which also worked fine. The mssql_connect() problems are
the same whether mssql.secure_connection is set to Off or On in the php.ini
Reproduce code:
---------------
$db = mssql_connect('hostname', 'username', 'password');
if(!$db) {
die('<h2>Massive failure</h2>');
}
Expected result:
----------------
Should connect to database not print any errors
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to
server: host.name.of.server in /var/www/html/filename.php on line 28
