Kevin, I ran into this when I updated to 64 bit. It was a script only library stack. I don't know why it worked in v6 but did not work in v9. For me it was fastJson.livecodescript that caused the problem so I just used the built json in v9 and all was OK. Why it showed up in a DB open is a mystery? https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22514

My new(er) server (64bit lc server v9 on Debian 8) throws up ~Function: error in function handler (revOpenDatabase)~ so something has clearly changed. I've tried removing the socket references, changing the connection type but the error message remains the same. Has the syntax for revOpenDatabase changed and I'm reading old documentation again? Thanks Kevin # connect to the database command dbConnect put "/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock" into _Socket put revOpenDatabase("MySql", "localhost:3306", _dbName, _dbUser, _dbPass,, _Socket) into DB if DB is not a number then put "Error: could not connect to database!" & BR end dbConnect _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
