Hi Folks,

I just sent some software using the MySQL database plugin to some people to test and immediately I have a problem I wasn't aware of at all. On OSX Server the "socket" file isn't in /tmp/mysql.sock but in /var/mysql/mysql.sock. so it cannot make a connection locally to that machine. Is there a way to change where the plugin looks for this? Why is it looking for it at all when its supposed to be a socket connection? Is there a work around that doesn't involve reconfiguring MySQL on the server? There is no obvious setting for where the RB plugin looks for it that I can see.


Hi James,

Try using 127.0.0.1 or the full host/domain name instead of "localhost" when connecting, this should ensure TCP/IP is used instead.

Regards,

Ian
