Glad to say I got it working. I ended up removing the rduser account on mysql and giving it the root username and password again, but this time I noticed that the password box didn't display the right number of *s.

Yeah that would happen with php scripts that run from top to bottom on each web request. But in something like Rivendell, the MySQL connection (or connections) ought to stay open for the entire duration that the app is open, and closed only when the app is exited. Sent from my iPhone On May 1

This would suggest that each query from Rivendell opens a new TCP connection to MySQL, which would be bizarre behavior. Is that really how it works? I don't think MySQL does a reverse DNS lookup for every client query, just for each connection. And I doubt that's default behavior to do reverse

Latency can be an issue with MySQL but only usually if you don't have good DNS on your network. To test this out you can just disable the DNS checking in the mysql config file. Just add skip-name-resolve under [mysqld] in my.cnf. You can normally see this is at fault if it takes forever to l
