    Default Installation problem, MySQL

    Hi, I am trying to install Roundcube on a Windows box (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit), deployed on Apache 2 with MySQL.

    I have managed to get the installation/configuration working up to the point with the database connection - apparently roundcube/php is not able to communicate with the MySQL server (on the same box, the database server is working for other applications).

    I have verified that the password/username and that the tables have been created.

    The message in the errors file in the log folder is:
    Code:
    [15-Aug-2010 21:11:46] MDB2 Error: connect failed (-24): _doConnect: [Error message: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
    
    ]
    [Native code: 2002]
    [Native message: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
    
    ]
    Any hints and tips? I guess my next step would be to turn on detailed logging for MySQL and see what happens on that end, or if the communication doesn't get that far even...

    Default

    Solved - I changed from localhost to 127.0.0.1 and then it worked, it had to do with sockets vs ip/port and how the database layer worked. I stumbled upon another configuration later, with the IMAP server, and changed to 127.0.0.1 there as well, and from then on Roundcube seems to work ok!
