3308 is non-standard port number, so you need to use --port argument.
Alec,
Could you elaborate slightly as I am struggling with this.
The reference to port 3308 is from within the working Roundcube configuration file "config.inc.php" which is in the /usr/share/roundcubemail/config/ folder.
Or are you telling me that the command I am trying to run:
mysql -u root -pYOURPASSWORD roundcubedb < drivers/database/SQL/mysql.initial.sql
should be altered to include the --port argument.
I am still unsure if that would work as it appears I am not finding the location of the database as it keeps giving me errors saying that the database is not there? It must be as otherwise how is the current version of roundcube working?
Any help appreciated.
