How To Connect to a MySQL Sever with Default Port Number
How To Connect to a MySQL Sever with Default Port Number? - MySQL FAQs - PHP Connections and Query Execution
✍: FYIcenter.com
If you want to connect a MySQL server with default port number, you can use the "mysql_connect($server)" function, where $server is the host name or IP address where the MySQL server is running. If successful, mysql_connect() will return a connection object for you to allow you to run other MySQL API functions.
The tutorial exercise below shows you a simple connection call to a MySQL server on the "localhost":
<?php $con = mysql_connect('localhost'); if (!$con) { print("There is a problem with MySQL connection.\n"); } else { print("The MySQL connection object is ready.\n"); mysql_close($con); } ?>
But this will not work, if your server is running a non-default port number, 3306. In that case, It will give this output:
PHP Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in fyi_center.php on line 2 There is a problem with the MySQL connection.
