Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53795&edit=1 ID: 53795 Updated by: andrey@php.net Reported by: dave dot kelly at dawkco dot com Summary: Connect Error from MySqli (mysqlnd) when using SSL Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: MySQLi related Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.3.5 Assigned To: mysql Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: No, mysqlnd doesn't use my.ini/my.cnf files, as libmysql did. You have to set your options manually. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-24 10:21:41] uw@php.net mysqlnd does not read default files, AFAIK. I think Andrey wants to deprecate that, Andrey? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-20 01:59:47] dave dot kelly at dawkco dot com Description: ------------ - Using PHP 5.3.5 Windows binaries (Zip package). - extension = php_mysqli.dll is enabled in php.ini. - trying to use mysqli::real_connect, passing MYSQLI_CLIENT_SSL in the flags parameter. It returns the following error: Warning: mysqli::real_connect() [mysqli.real-connect.html]: (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'user'@'host' (using password: YES) in C:\Apache22\htdocs\test.php on line 25 Connect Error (1045) If I switch to PHP 5.2.17 Windows binaries (Zip package), using the exact same settings and script, I get the following (excerpts): Success... host via TCP/IP ... Ssl_cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA ... Ssl_version TLSv1 I believe the main difference (relevant to this problem) between PHP 5.2.17 and PHP 5.3.5 is that 5.2.17 uses libmysql.dll and 5.3.5 uses built-in mysqlnd (native driver). So, it appears that libmysql.dll works with SSL, while built-in mysqlnd (native driver) cannot use SSL. The Windows binaries build has no way to disable/enable mysqlnd and/or libmysql. If mysqlnd is not going to work with SSL, there should at least be another option that can be configured at runtime with the options file. Test script: --------------- <?php $mysqli = new mysqli(); $mysqli->init(); if (!$mysqli->options(MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_FILE, 'C:/Program Files/MySQL/my.ini')) { die('Setting MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_FILE failed'); } if (!$mysqli->options(MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP, 'mysql')) { die('Setting MYSQLI_READ_DEFAULT_GROUP failed'); } if (!$mysqli->real_connect('host', 'user', 'pass', 'mydb', 3306, NULL, MYSQLI_CLIENT_SSL)) { echo 'Connect Error (' . mysqli_connect_errno() . ')' . "<br />\n"; } else { echo 'Success... ' . $mysqli->host_info . "<br />\n"; $sql = "show status like '%ssl%'"; $result = $mysqli->query($sql); while ($row = $result->fetch_array()) { echo $row[0] . ' ' . $row[1] . "<br />\n"; } if ($result) { $result->close(); } } $mysqli->close(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Expect a new SSL connection and a result set from the query indicating that the connection is indeed via SSL/TLS. Actual result: -------------- Warning: (28000/1045): Access denied ... Connect Error (1045). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53795&edit=1
