as the title suggests I have a MySQL database setup on port 3333 instead of 3306 and I can connect externally fine on Heidi SQL with a user, I have granted all privileges to that user, but when trying to connect via a php script, I cannot get it to load at all. I have allowed it through internal windows firewall and external and like I say I can connect but not query it would seem.
I am using the same database for a game server with different users and even tried the same user with different database but same mysql server. It's just php connectivity.
I've changed the port under mysqld in my.ini and commented out bind-address. Really picking my skull now!
Any help would be massively appreciated!
