Hi, thx for the response. I tried w/ 'mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u???? -p????' (substitute the ????s w/ the appropriate username and passwd of course) and it seems to just 'hang' there w/out doing anything. If I entered an invalid username, it'll immediately give me ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user "....'@'localhost' (Using password: YES). SO I am confused.
Besides this mysql connection through cygwin, I have issues w/ the perl connecting to mysql through cygwin also. Everything through DOS / apache server is fine. - Yaakov (Cygwin Ports) wrote: > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA256 > > JamesStock wrote: >> I have Apache, mysql, PHP and perl (activestate) installed in my XP (NOT >> through cygwin but installed individually).
