Hello,
I am running version 3.23.41 on windows '98. When I run winipcfg I show
that my hostname is siren.goldengate.net and
my ip address is 10.0.0.1. When I type c:\mysql\bin mysql I get an error
message:
ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)
I tried several versions of -h switch:
mysql -h siren.goldenget.net
mysql -h localhost
mysql -h siren
but no luck. After much playing around with the scripts located in
c:\mysql\bin I noticed that c:\mysql\bin mysqld-opt starts
the daemon and then allows me to run c:\mysql\bin mysql to get in. I
then need to run c:\mysql\bin winmysqladmin to shut down the server.
This works for me now but I'm not sure if it will cause problems later.
I can't tweak any of the scripts in c:\mysql\bin so not sure what other
options I have. Is there a better approach than this kind of work
around?
Thanks,
Richard
