You were all right. I created some functions and one of them creates a connect string from parameters read from a config file. One of these is the database port. When I checked the function in the external library I saw that I didn't include it in the return. mysql://user:passw...@127.0.0.1/database
Because I use it for a few months now without problems I assumed there were no problems with it because I always used default ports. Fixed it and it works like sunshine :-) Thanks for all your input. I couldn't see the trees through the forest anymore, as we say in my country.
