Thank you for the report. We don't work on DBD::mysql bugs anymore. All its bugs should go to CPAN: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=DBD-mysql I re-submitted your report to https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=83496 Please subscribe to the new report on CPAN and work with DBD::mysql developers in case if they need additional details.
Description: Hello, if only --testport is specified for perl Makefile.PL, the tests will fail to run properly. if testport=1234 is specified, make test results in DBI connect('test:1234','',...) failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on '1234' (22) at 10connect.t line 25 strace reveals that a connection attempt is made to the default port of a non-existant host. How to repeat: # perl Makefile.PL --testport=1234 # cd t # perl 10connect.t DBI connect('test:1234','',...) failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on '1234' (22) at 10connect.t line 25 # Looks like your test died before it could output anything. # strace perl 10connect.t 2>&1 | grep connect connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3306), sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.4.210")}, 16) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument Suggested fix: It would be nice to have a default of 127.0.0.1 for testhost if testport is present. This way a DSN will be constructed that uses the correct port AND does not use a unix socket (the 127.0.0.1 guards against that).
