Re: MySQL upgrade 3.23.49-86 broke OSCommerce access (SOLVED)



My own fault. I forgot to set the "skip-networking" back in my.cnf last week when I was exploring better security so when mysql restarted this morning after the upgrade, the new (wrong) parameter took effect.

After an upgrade from MySQL 3.23.49-85 to 3.23.49-86 one of my LAMP applications broke (OSCommerce) while another one (Moodle) continued on. OScommerce is unable to access the database with the username/password that it had been using.

MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'host.domain.com' (111)

I noticed that the application was using 'root' and a password. I attempted to change this to another username and password. I can access the database via the mysql client and Webmin, but not with the application. Ideas?
