Bug description: cannot connect to MySQL from the web server
Description:
------------
PHP has been installed with "with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql".
PHP 4.3.8
Mysql 4.0.15
iPlanet 6.1
It was working well with PHP 4.3.4 before we upgrade.
Once we upgraded PHP to 4.3.8, we got "mysql_connect(): Can't connect to
MySQL server..." when trying to open a page from the webserver. The
command-line PHP was still working correctly.
We recompiled PHP with "with-mysql" only (built-in MySQL) and it all
started working ok.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<html>
<body>
<?php
$hostname = 'hostname';
$user = 'root';
$passwd = 'password';
$database_name = 'mysql';
$error_connection = 'Cannot connect to MySQL';
$error_db = "Invalid database name ($database_name)";
if (!($connection = @ mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $passwd)))
die("$error_connection");
if (!(mysql_select_db($database_name, $connection)))
die("$error_db");
$query = "show tables;";
if (!($result = mysql_query ($query, $connection)))
die("error");
while ($row = @ mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "$row[0]<br>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
Expected result:
----------------
The list of tables should print on the screen if ran from the webserver:
columns_priv
db
func
host
tables_priv
user
If ran from the command line:
nrn1# /usr/local/php/bin/php test_PHP_mysql.php
<html>
<body>
columns_priv<br>db<br>func<br>host<br>tables_priv<br>user<br></body>
</html>
nrn1#
Actual result:
--------------
>From the webserver:
Cannot connect to MySQL
>From the command line:
nrn1# /usr/local/php/bin/php test_PHP_mysql.php
<html>
<body>
columns_priv<br>db<br>func<br>host<br>tables_priv<br>user<br></body>
</html>
