MySQL bind-address failure
Posted: Fri Aug 21, 2009 3:05 pm
I am trying to connect to a remote MySQL server from my Windows machine. I have done this a 100 times in the past and never had this issue.
Basically when I change bind-address to anything other than 127.0.0.0 and restart the MySQL server it fails on me but keeping it as the local loopback address works fine. I have tried using wildcards % and * as well as the IP of the Windows machine I am trying to connect from (ie: 192.168.1.104).
The error and log files appear to be empty (ie: mysql.err)
Any ideas on what might be causing this issue?
