[Cppcms-users] cppdb::session: change from Unix socket to remote connection.

[Richard S. <ri...@sz...>]

Hello,

when executing:

cppdb::session 
sql("mysql:host=localhost;port=3306;database=db;user=user;password='password';@module=./libcppdb_mysql.so");

I get the following exception:

what():  cppdb::mysql::Can't connect to local MySQL server through 
socket '/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2 "No such file or directory")

How can I specify cppdb::session to use the host and port for my MySQL 
server and not Unix sockets?

Perhaps I am missing something, but it does not seem clear from the 
documentation at:
http://cppcms.com/sql/cppdb/connstr.html
and
http://cppcms.com/sql/cppdb/mysql.html

Kind regards,
Richard Szibele
