SQL Error I've Not Previously Encountered

Postby KallistaAEnvarou » 23. March 2008 06:26

I keep getting "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10048)" when I try to run my scripts. Also, phpMyAdmin keeps telling me the server is not responding. What does all this mean? I've tried restarting XAMPP, but that didn't help. The Apache error log doesn't give me any errors. What do I do to fix this problem?

Your MySQL server is running?

I think so. I restarted the computer and ran xampp_start.exe. I was running a script earlier, and it was (sort of) working, but then all of a sudden I got that error. I say sort of because I was getting a semi-infinity loop. I'm trying to create a cookie-setting function that creates a unique key for each new user, and it was setting like 10 times. Here is my code.

User-Definied Function Definitions
Code: Select all
function cgkey(&$cgkey)
{
   /**
   Function Statement:   Generates a computer-generated key 36 characters long
   1.   Input
      $cgkey
         passed to function for return by reference
         denotes computer-generated key function will return
   2.   Proccess
      empty $cgkey just in case it was set before being passed to function
      set $pattern to be all alphanumeric characters
      Loop [for $p=0;$p < 36;$p++]
         choose one of the letters and add to the end of $cgkey
      End Loop
   3.   Output
      pass $cgkey by reference
   */
   $cgkey="";
   $pattern='abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890';
   for($p=0;$p<36;$p++)
   {
      $cgkey.=$pattern{rand(0,35)};
   }
}

function closesql($line)
{
   /**
   Function Statement: closes the mysql connecton
   1.   Input
      none
   2.   Process
      close connection linked to $GLOBALS['con']
   3.   Output
      None
   */
   global $file;
   mysql_close($GLOBALS['con']) or die("Could not close connection on line $line in $file." . mysql_error());
}

function opensql($user,$db,$line)
{
   /**
   Function Statement: connects to the database using one line of code
   1.   Input
      $username
         passed to function

   $GLOBALS['db']=@mysql_select_db("phplearn_reportingscience_$db") or die("Could not connect $user to $db on line $line in $file: ".mysql_error());
}

function sql($query,$line)
{
   /**

   */
   global $file;
   $result=mysql_query($query) or die("Query on $line in $file failed: " . mysql_error());
   return $result;
}

function sqlrows(&$rows,$query,$line)
{

   global $file;

   $rows=mysql_num_rows($result);

I think so.

You can see mysqld.exe in the Windows task manager?

No, but I never have. I only run xampp_start.exe, and it says that both Apache and MySql are running. I've tried everything I can think of, even clearing my cache, except reinstall XAMPP, and I have no clue what to do.

No

You can't see mysqld.exe in the Windows task manager? In this case MySQL is not running.

Start MySQL with the batch file and read the (error-) message.

It's never been in my start tray before, but this thing always pops up.

with the batch file

A batchfile have the extension "*.bat". In this case "mysql_start.bat". (and not "xampp_start.exe").

Oh wait, task manager. Not start menu tray.

Silly me. Yes, it's there.

Edit: OK, I upgraded to 1.6.6a. The problem seems to be fixed now. Thanks though.
