Hi David,
I installed the newest version 15/09A. When I run setup, it failed:
Checking database connection...FAIL check $config_databaseUsername and $config_databasePassword values
Checking database selection...FAIL
Checking database tables...FAIL
You can see here:
{link saved}
I just upgraded php version to 5.5.30.
There is something to do with mySQLi. Here is database connection info for php 5.5 from my host:
mysqli.php
<?php
$host_name = "localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock";
$database = "db6********";
$user_name = "dbo6********";
$password = "*********";
$mysqlsocket = "localhost/tmp/mysql5.sock";
$connect = mysqli_connect($host_name, $user_name, $password, $database, 3316, $mysqlsocket);
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
?>
Thank you
Hi David,
I am experiencing similar issue with new installation. I get the following error message:
Checking database connection...FAIL check $config_databaseUsername and $config_databasePassword values
Checking database selection...FAIL
Checking database tables...FAIL
Using the following code from another thread
<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock","name","password");
print "<p>".mysql_get_server_info($link)."</p>";
print "<p>".mysql_error($link)."</p>";
?>The output from the above is:
5.1.73-1+deb6u1
Any ideas what I can do?
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Richard
Hello Richard,
Please could you email me config.php and includes/database.php and I'll apply the patch for connection via a non-default socket file...
Cheers,
David.

Hi David,
Brilliant, works a treat!
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Richard
Hello senaite,
I have come across this issue before - under certain circumstances where a socket file needs to be specified the mysqli_connect() function will only work if the socket is provided through the mysqli.default_socket ini variable, it does not seem to be accepted as part of the $host parameter.
I will email you a patch for 15/09A with this modification in place which should do the trick..
Cheers,
David.
