Hi, I can connect via the mysql console to the database, my service is running. however when I try to do syncdb from Django I get:
_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (2003,"Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)") My current test Django settings.py says: DATABASE_ENGINE = 'mysql' DATABASE_NAME = 'dbname' DATABASE_USER = 'root' . DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'thepassword' DATABASE_HOST = '' DATABASE_PORT = '' (have not edited any of the rest because it should not be relevant as I understand it - although time zone is wrong) when I use the mysql console I do mysql -u root -p pass: thepassword then connect dbname then status which tells me: (some things left out as they seemed especially non-essential) Current Database: dbname Current User: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Server Version: 5.0.67-community-nt MySQL Community Edition (GPL) Protocol Version: 10 Connection: Named pipe: mysql Server Characterset: utf8 (all characters set to utf8) I am running on Windows currently.
