From: robin dot fredman at armagedon dot org Operating system: Win98 PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: MySQL related Bug description: Suddenly unable to reach the MySQL database
Description: ------------ I have an Apache webserver up and running, using PHP to communicate with a MySQL database. The database pretty much handles everything on the page, so if php can't connect too it, nothing will load. Reproduce code: --------------- dbconnect.php: <?php $connection = mysql_connect ("localhost", "<username>", "<password>") or die ( "Could not connect to localhost" ); $database = mysql_select_db ("data_base", $connection); ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expect to see the whole page load, i.e. that it can connect to the Database and then proceed to load the rest of the page. Actual result: -------------- Instead, I get a white screen with the following text: Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10055) in E:\Program\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\functions\dbconnect.php on line 2 Could not connect to localhost I'm not sure wether it is a MySQL error, or if it's PHP. However, mysqladmin version shows that there is no problems. I am also running mysqld --log-error, and the log shows nothing faulty. It seems as if php is unable to access port 3306 or something. When reloaded several times, the page sometime loads "half-way", i.e. text and some colours, but usually no pictures. When reloaded a few more times, it's just the result above again. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26226&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26226&r=float
