I've just built a new LAMP server and I'm having a little issue where Apache doesn't serve a simple non-database webpage, instead, I get an error on all my virtual-host in the browser: Database Error: Unable to connect to the Database: Could not connect to MySQL.

I've googled the problem but since the error mentions MySql, everything I find is related to connecting to MySql, which I'm not trying to connect... and I've contacted my Linux mentor about this issue... This is something I've never seen before... don't know why Apache thinks I'm trying connect to MySQL on every browser call to the server...

However, MySQL is accessible via telnet, and all my permissions are correct...

Hope the apacheLounge can shed some light on this...

All the best,

Gene

Apache has no function in it that is connecting to MySQL. Or you must have some kind of MySQL authentication defined in your configuration.

Running for example PHP scripts which are trying to connect to MySqL ?
