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.
