Bug No. 1200 Solution: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't create IP socket (10036)

The solution to this Windows related problem is: PHP3 expects the lastest Winsock driver versions to be installed, if any socket related function should be performed (i.e. mysql_connect, gethostbyaddress etc.) With most versions of Windows 95 it is necessary to update to the Microsoft "Winsock 2" service pack. With Windows NT 4.0 installation of service pack 3 is mandatory. There are no problems when using Windows 98 (except for performance). Norbert --------------- Problem --------------- The script <?php mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "password"); ?> causes the following error: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't create IP socket (10036) In Win32 PHP the mySQL-extensions are enabled (php.ini). MySQL database generally allows login and connection via localhost for "user" & "password", this is verified using mySQL-client and Perl with mysql modules. Is the Connection Failure I experience a general problem with PHP3 access on mySQL (all Win32 based)? or: Can this problem be solved by some entries in php3.ini? or: Is there a way to find out, why creation of IP socket failed?
