Could you please edit or create the windows\hosts file with: 127.0.0.1 localhost and try again.

Simon Höddels
I've already done that. It works with neither of it.

Verify if the user which can't connect with those clients application has localhost host privilege.

Simon Höddels
Yes, they have the privileges they need (in example localhost has host privilege).

Please try with version 5.5.13. Thanks.

I can't try it with 5.5.13 or 5.5.14 currently. I can try an update, but the community installer can't install because a newer version is installed (I've also installed 5.6). The different installs are just for test purposes and don't run at the same time. I switch between different versions to test functionality of my programs and to see if problems occur with older or newer versions of MySQL.

What are other tools you're trying to connect with? Can you run netstat -ano |findstr 3306 ? (I'm particularly interested in checking if MySQL is listening on just IPv6 traffic, my theory is that it could break older IPv4 clients)

It looks like your guess is correct. This is the result I get from netstat: path>netstat -ano |findstr 3306 TCP [::]:3306 [::]:0 ABHÖREN 2612 So there are no IPv4 ports. I'm using tools like HeidiSQL and selfwritten software. Also I tried MySql Workbench and DreamCoder. Nothing except the mysql.exe command line tool works.

Simon, you can workaround this by adding bind-address=0.0.0.0 to the [mysqld] section of my.ini As for MySQL server fix, I think server it should check for Windows version(GetVersionEx() or something) and, by default, bind server socket to IPv4-any-address in XP, as IPv6 in XP is lacking dual stack support.

Thanks Vladislav! You've helped me a great deal. The workaround with bind-address has worked. I guess it would be nice if the server would prefer IPv4 over IPv6 on WindowsXP as you've mentioned it.
