Morning,
Since updating yesterday, all my php scripts that connect to a mysql database (whether local or over the network) stopped being able to connect. I had to append the port number to the host definition in the mysql connect function call to get them to work again. I have been unable to find what has changed. Any ideas where the change may have happened.
thanks

Hi, Digging a bit deeper, the php.ini directive mysql_default_port is not set, though it has never been set in my php.ini. setting that to 3306 solved the problem. Sorry for the noise. Cheers Chris
