Folk, please help me out I'm trying to install Mysql and the odbc stuff (I'm following Will Hentzen's book closely)
I'm stuck on the ODBC installation, where I get the error Connection failed [HY000][MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver] Can't connect to MySql server on localhost (10061) The book tells me this is a common error and that it may be firewall related, but I don't have a firewall so I don't know what to do next. I've changed my network settings from automatic to 192.168.1.11 (etc) When I ping localhost, it returns me 127.0.0.1 I CAN ping 192.168.1.11 I suspect localhost should be 192.168.1.11 ???? -- Regards Sytze de Boer Kiss Systems Hamilton, NZ Ph: 64-7-8391670, Mob:021 937611, www.kiss.co.nz _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
