Tips on MySQL Connections

Sunday Mar 14, 2010
  • I seem to be having problems with the MySQL database and vB connecting to it. I'm running on APache 3.2.2 PHP 4.1.1, MySQL 3x(latest) and win 98. Anyone have tips for not getting these connection errors to the database. I tried the host set on 127.0.0.1 and localhost


  • you've tried all of http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/a/Can_not_connect_to_server.html ?


  • huh?
    Explorer
    c:mysqlbinmysqladmin :)

  • might find your answer at http://www.mysql.com/doc/W/i/Windows.html


  • could it possibly be a win 98 problem?? any help would be appreciated!!


  • I have to manually turn MySql on everytime I use it. I am using it for testing not for people to connect to. so mine might be setup different than yours.


  • oh i c
    he's running win98 :rolleyes:


  • odd. i tried the mysql and it gives this error: Error 2003: Cannot connect to MySQL server on localhost (10061)
    Any ideas??


  • u sure eva?
    i cant remember exactly, but i think that mysqladmin starts MySQL on w2K platforms.
    I may be wrong, but........

    Have you installed ODBC?

    it's up 8:00AM-6:00PM EST for now because of server probs.


  • it now says when i goto databases and then to create or even to check MySQL that the server is not running(mySql). That's really odd. how would i turn the MySQL server on. It's always been on before :confused:


  • It would help to know what the errors actually are :)


  • is mysql running? also check to see if you have the correct db name and stuff like that. I have no problems with mysql/apache/win98 all running at the sametime.


  • sorry

    Warning: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10055) in c:program filesapache groupapachehtdocsforumsadmindb_mysql.php on line 38




    There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.

    that's the error i get a lot.


  • any idea on how to start it up though??


  • nuno wrong command......

    to start mysql on windows 95/98

    in MS-DOS window and type:

    C:> C:mysqlbinmysqld

    to stop mysql type

    C:> C:mysqlbinmysqladmin -u root shutdown


  • I've done that, but obviously something is wrong and it isn't connecting. Beucase when I try to use any of the mysqladmin commands it says cannnot connect to mysql server, make sure the server is running and on port 3306 and try to do a telnet to check the connection. I did a telnet and it says cannot connect to localhost. This is really making me mad. Any ideas??


  • Yeah :(


  • the way I start mine is I goto a dos prompt and work my way to c:mysqlbin and then type mysql to start. it then leaves a dos box open all the time.


  • can you post a link to your forums which is having this error ?
