 |

Sorry to bump post, but look like same problem with mine (XP). I'm just user at localhost

- apache as service [work]
- php as apache handler [work]
- mysql as service or "not" as service [cannot connect to localhost (1106 - forget the number) another say failure]
| James Blond wrote: | | did you reboot your computer yet? |
- reboot [mysql not work]
- "not" reboot [mysql still not work]
| James Blond wrote: | | Are you talking about the xampp control panel? |
- xampplite [work great]
- xampp 1.7.7 [mysql "not" work]
- apache stand alone (from apache lounge) [work]
- php [as CGI, as apache handler "work"]
- mysql [a lot of methods I try just "failed"]
Please advice for mysql, please?
Or am I in wrong forum?
Will threat new post if necessary
Any advice will appreciated. Thanks

| My MySQL is working fine. It was downloaded from mysql.com some time ago as mysql-5.1.30-win32.zip, which just contained a setup.exe. |

A lot of try:
- with "zip-noinstall" failed
- with "msi" failed
- my.ini at any where place necessary [failed]
- MySQL as service or "not" as service [failed]
Most error said
- something wrong with socket
- Cannot connect to localhost machine refuse
- If I try connect via php "mysql_connect" error said, Can't connect ..... tcp:/ /localhost:3360
Look like I'm wrong in configs or something. It's weird, should be http:/ /localhost
As service or "not" as service look like no effect

Using xampp 1.7.3 no problem at all with mysql
clean uninstall 1.7.3 then try install 1.7.4
- mysql not work.
uninstall 1.7.4 Then try xampp 1.7.7 for test failed on MySQL
reboot/restart procedure allways do.
Then try from zip
- MySQL is installed but some how cannot connect to localhost. Do I need create database/user before run/install. If yes how?
With msi, yes I ever try but no luck
With exe, not try (do not no the place) yet.
- apache [no problem]
- php [no problem]
- MySQL want to connected with phpMyAdmin [tough failed]
With old xampp 1.7.3 no problem
Now want to try install apache alone, php alone, my sql alone. Installed one by one.
Am I should be install 1.7.3 and give up?
Any advice will be appreciated
thanks |

Ok that makes it more clear. The reasons is that localhost often resolves as ::1 (Ipv6).
Do you get that too when you ping localhost? |
