Re: [cobalt-users] Help!! Raq4 and Mysql prob!!

["Robert Dayton" <rob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had this problem but it was wierd bro. For some reason it wouldn't connect
right as safe_mysqld but would connect fine when I ran ./mysql start from
the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory. Also, had to use mysql_pconnect in the php
code instead of mysql_connect.  You may want to put in the machine's ip
address for host also:

mysql_pconnect("10.0.0.2", $username, $password.....

Good luck and please let me know how it works out for you.
