Cannot connect to MySQL DB

Targets Web
1

Hi,
I want to connect to my MySQL DB over localhost on my Webserver.

Following error is returned: [quote]Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/tmp/mysql.sock’ (13)[/quote]

Here’s my testapp:
http://139.59.129.235/cgi-bin/testapp/testapp2.cgi
-> Just insert “localhost” into the first textbox.
-> in the label on the bottom occurs the returned messages and errors.

Can someone help me?

I think the db expects an IP, not a socket file
127.0.0.1 seems to work in your app :slight_smile:
