I would appreciate help in getting mysql_connect to behave consistently
on different machines. It does not work for me on a dual-processor
server but will on other servers. On dual-processor machines, no matter
what parameters are entered into the function, they are ignored. For
example, with
$link = mysql_connect ("localhost", "ams", "amspassword")
or die ("Could not connect as ams: " . mysql_error() );
if ($link && mysql_select_db ("refs"))
return ($link);
the function defaults to localhost and no user or password, so the
browser returns only
Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'refs'
By chown'ing the calling script to different users other than mysql, the
message will sometimes name a user--for example,
Access denied for user: 'bob@localhost' to database 'refs' (Using
password: NO)
I've tried setting the mysql_default.socket in php.ini to the mysql
socket, and that makes no difference.
How do I get mysql_connect to read its parameters? Why should this only
be a problem on dual_processor machines?
