Can the MySQL port be modified from conf.ini?

[Aoirthoir]

Pretty much as stated. If it cannot I assume I would change it in one of the .php files.

I've been using Xamp. But I realized I was using Wamp before. So now I am at times running 2 copies of MySQL on different ports. If it cant be set in an ini or a local(app) file, then I will just keep changing the settings back and forth for now.

Thank you kindly.

You should just be able to append the port to the host line of the conf.ini file. The info from the [_database] section essentially gets passed directly through to the mysql_connect call (http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php).

e.g.

[_database]
host=localhost:9091 ; Mysql is running on port 9091

Hope this helps..

That does it. I can add to the issue tracker and mark it resolved or leave it here. Will of course add it to the FAQ and other docs as I get them going.
