Hello, I've currently got a bit of a problem with my server. ISPConfig is showing my mysql server as offline which in turn is causing my mail and ftp to not work. However my MySQL is online as i can login to the mysql via. ssh and also phpmyadmin is working fine to which i can login with the root account and non-privileged users. What can i do to debug and find the cause of the problem? Thanks in advance, Wader.
Most likely your mysql server is not listening on localhost. Please post the output of: netstat -tap | grep mysql
This is the output. I did change the bind-host of the mysql the other day to allow remote connecting. Is it possible to do make mysql listen on the localhost and the IP? Code: tcp 0 0 velocity.iwader.c:mysql *:* LISTEN 1797/mysqld
Yes, just comment out the bind directive by adding a # in front as described in the perfect setup guides.
