Re: MySQL connecction

Except that if you read the documentation, every single argument to
mysql_connect() is optional.  If the connection were being
successfully established, she would have authentication failures, not
socket failures.

That is only partially true and for someone who knows this much you would have been better to ask the poster if the defaults have been defined in the php.ini file instead of assuming the poster knows this and this has been done.


It's optional because it accepts the defaults that are defined in the php.ini file and that only applies if they have been defined and since the poster can't get it working I'd say that it's very probable they have not been defined, what I offered works regardless of the php.ini defines which is far easier than trying to educate the poster on the intricacies of the php.ini file which would take far more time than I would care to devote to their problem.

I offered a working solution, unfortunately you haven't done or offered anything helpful.

In fact I have a php file which calls "$connection = mysql_connect
()". That's all. It comes from a sample found in the "mySQL
functions" section of a php tutorial. Isn't it right (or complete)?
I'm really new to mysql, sorry.

What ???

I take it you didn't read the info on the function, copy and paste
this in your php file. (don't forget to edit the username and password)

// Define the information to access the mysql server
$mysql_access = array(
'host' => "localhost", // can be in form of host:port.
'socket' => ":/var/mysql/mysql.sock", // path to mysql socket
'username' => "mysql_username", // username for mysql access.
'password' => "mysql_password", // password for mysql access.
'connection' => "socket", // connection type to use. (use socket
for local)
); // DO NOT CHANGE THIS!!!



// Establish a connection to the server
$connection = mysql_connect($mysql_access[$mysql_access
['connection']],$mysql_access['username'] ,$mysql_access ['password']);

Now that you have a connection what do you want to do with it?


Thank you.
