Description:
I am installing Eventum 1.7.1 on a Fedora4 - php 5.0.4, apache 2.0.54, mysql 4.1.11. Database, webserver and eventum are all installed on the same machine.

The Eventum Installation reports an error
Details: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (13)

Mysql is running (run mysqlcheck, nmap and ps -ea) also other applications using mysql are working. The mysqld port is 3306/tcp.

How to repeat:
Install Eventum (downloaded on 27 June). Fedora is installed on a Intel/P3 machine.

Thank you for a problem report. Are you sure that user that is trying to connect during Eventum installation, can really connect? It can be permissions problem. Please, try to repeat with:

mysql -uYOUR_USER -pYOUR_PASSWORD --host=127.0.0.1

and just copy and paste the results.

As requested

[root@uptime local]# mysql -u root -p --host=127.0.0.1
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

The same response is seen with the localhost ip.

Hi,

Can other PHP applications connect to MySQL Server?
