PHP 4.0 Bug #9601 Updated: MySQL connects to wrong database

ID: 9601 Updated by: cnewbill Reported By: gkopp@ideastar.com Status: Open Bug Type: MySQL related Assigned To: Comments: Couple stupid questions. 1) When you compiled PHP, did you just use --with-mysql instead of --with-mysql=/path/to/mysql? 2) Does the mysql command line tool connect? i.e. mysql -u ceres -pxxxx ceres_test -Chris Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-07 09:34:33] gkopp@ideastar.com MySQL: 3.22.32-beta Apache: 1.3.14 MySQL is connecting to the wrong database: I have two databases: ceres ceres_test The ceres database is the live database and the user "ceres" is granted permissions on it. The ceres_test database is a database that is identical, but I use for testing purposes. The mysql user "ceresdb" has permissions to access the "ceres" database ONLY. However, if I execute: mysql_pconnect("localhost","ceresdb", "password"); mysql_select_db("ceres_test"); It actually connects to the "ceres" database instead. I should have recieved and error that it was unable to connect. We have verified this several ways. Also, if I change the username/password to the root user or a user that has permissions on ALL databases, it works fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
