Sorry for this :( . Correction marked with " <=====**** " I typed a my.cnf from another machine. only the port differs.
============== Yeah, it is the only one on that port. The worst part is that the connection attempt doesn´t even generates a log entry !! I looked into the log also !! netstat -an | grep LIST tcp4 0 0 *.5007 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.199 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.443 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.80 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.25 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.22 *.* LISTEN here is my.cnf [mysqld] datadir=/bd/mysql/data socket=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysql.sock port=5007 <=====**** set-variable = max_connections=2000 [mysql.server] user=xxxxxxx basedir=/bd/ [safe_mysqld] err-log=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysqld.log pid-file=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysqld.pid > > I know this might sound rather obvious but have you checked whether mysql is > actually listening on that port?
