    Database connection problem

    I have a perfectly working install of ox6 community on ubuntu 11.04 server.. However, when I changed my mysql configuration (my.conf) to allow for external access by binding by changing:

    bind-address = 127.0.0.1

    to

    bind-address = 192.168.0.x

    it suddenly says it can't connect to the database. Chaning it back fixed the issue. Is this a mysql user permission issue or is there a configuration setting to be changed?

    Hi Brady,

    please check (both) configdb.properties files and the configuration shown when calling "listdatabase". Perhaps one or more of these are set to "localhost" explicitly. AFAIK you can use a coma separated list of addresses to bind mysql to 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.0.x

    Greetings
