Operating Systems Linux MySQL server connetction problem Post 302086639 by this213 on Friday 25th of August 2006 10:32:37 AM

Corona688, I think you're thinking of Postgres. MySQL usually installs by default listening on port 3306. This simply doesn't do anyone any good because, by default, the only users within MySQL are assigned to localhost.

lancepanda, you need to add a user for the IP you want to conenct from to MySQL. Log into the machine MySQL is running on, then:
Code:
If you haven't added any MySQL users yet:
$ mysql 
Otherwise:
$ mysql -uADMIN_USER -pMY_PASSWORD

mysql>GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON database.* TO your_username@'123.123.123.123' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

mysql>exit;

Replace ADMIN_USER with the username of someone with authority to create new users, database with the database you want to connect to (or * for all), your_username and your_password with the proper values and 123.123.123.123 with your IP address. Be sure to leave the single quotes where they are as well as the semicolon at the end. Optionally, you may limit the privileges by replacing "ALL" with a comma delimited list of privileges (see the mysql manual for more information).

I'll also suggest you use The MySQL Control Center if you're not already. It's not version 1 yet, but beats The MySQL Administrator/Query Browser combo hands down - plus it makes user administration on your MySQL server very straightforward.

Also, as Corona688 said: The answers given here are used by other people in your same situation and you really should go back and edit your email address out of that post.

NAME
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::mysql - Storage::DBI class implementing MySQL specifics SYNOPSIS
Storage::DBI autodetects the underlying MySQL database, and re-blesses the $storage object into this class. my $schema = MyApp::Schema->connect( $dsn, $user, $pass, { on_connect_call => 'set_strict_mode' } ); DESCRIPTION
This class implements MySQL specific bits of DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI, like AutoIncrement column support and savepoints. Also it augments the SQL maker to support the MySQL-specific "STRAIGHT_JOIN" join type, which you can use by specifying "join_type => 'straight'" in the relationship attributes It also provides a one-stop on-connect macro "set_strict_mode" which sets session variables such that MySQL behaves more predictably as far as the SQL standard is concerned. STORAGE OPTIONS
set_strict_mode Enables session-wide strict options upon connecting. Equivalent to: ->connect ( ... , { on_connect_do => [ q|SET SQL_MODE = CONCAT('ANSI,TRADITIONAL,ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,', @@sql_mode)|, q|SET SQL_AUTO_IS_NULL = 0|, ] }); AUTHORS
