On TurnkeyLinux I have tried to connect a Web2Py app to the MySQL instance (which is up and running) with the following DAL statement (in db.py):
db = DAL('mysql://root:pwd2sql@web2py/dbname', fake_migrate_all=True) I have queried the MySQL for the information: select @@hostname; select database(); And then have substituted in the above DAL connection string. It doesn't work and throws the following ticket: Failure to connect, tried 5 times: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/www/web2py/gluon/dal.py", line 7562, in init self.adapter = ADAPTERSself._dbname File "/var/www/web2py/gluon/dal.py", line 2572, in __init_ if do_connect: self.reconnect() File "/var/www/web2py/gluon/dal.py", line 606, in reconnect self.connection = f() File "/var/www/web2py/gluon/dal.py", line 2570, in connector return self.driver.connect(*driver_args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/MySQLdb/init.py", line 81, in Connect return Connection(args, *kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/MySQLdb/connections.py", line 187, in init super(Connection, self).init(args, **kwargs2) OperationalError: (2003, "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'web2py' (111)") Does anybody have a connection string sample I can use ?
