Civix cannot connect to database.

[Bioto]

Hey everybody,

I am getting the following error when I try to setup civix.

Code: [Select]

<p>Initialization Error</p><p><pre>Array
(
    [callback] =&gt; Array
        (
            [0] =&gt; CRM_Core_Error
            [1] =&gt; simpleHandler
        )

    [code] =&gt; -24
    [message] =&gt; DB Error: connect failed
    [mode] =&gt; 16
    [debug_info] =&gt;  [nativecode=No such file or directory]
    [type] =&gt; DB_Error
    [user_info] =&gt;  [nativecode=No such file or directory]
    [to_string] =&gt; [db_error: message=&quot;DB Error: connect failed&quot; code=-24 mode=callback callback=CRM_Core_Error::simpleHandler prefix=&quot;&quot; info=&quot; [nativecode=No such file or directory]&quot;]
)
If I change the host name from "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" i get:

Code: [Select]

<p>Initialization Error</p><p><pre>Array
(
    [callback] =&gt; Array
        (
            [0] =&gt; CRM_Core_Error
            [1] =&gt; simpleHandler
        )

    [code] =&gt; -24
    [message] =&gt; DB Error: connect failed
    [mode] =&gt; 16
    [debug_info] =&gt;  [nativecode=Connection refused]
    [type] =&gt; DB_Error
    [user_info] =&gt;  [nativecode=Connection refused]
    [to_string] =&gt; [db_error: message=&quot;DB Error: connect failed&quot; code=-24 mode=callback callback=CRM_Core_Error::simpleHandler prefix=&quot;&quot; info=&quot; [nativecode=Connection refused]&quot;]
)
</pre></p><p></p>

Even though I am getting these errors, my install of civi and drupal are working perfectly fine.

Any help would be much appreciated!

System: Fresh install Mac Mountain Lion
Drupal: 7.28
Civi: 4.4.5

Stack: MAMP

Thanks!

a) The command-line is probably configured to use OS X's built-in PHP instead of MAMP's PHP. MAMP's PHP has some patches that help it connect to MAMP's MySQL. See https://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Setup+Command-Line+PHP

b) You might try specifying MySQL's TCP port as part of the URL in civicrm.settings.php. In MAMP, this is probably 8889, but you can consult to the MAMP config screens to see what the correct value is.

Changing the port worked Thank you!
