Package: mysql-server Version: 5.5.31+dfsg-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? Trying to connect to mysql via perl script using DBI interface * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or Executing the perl script * What was the outcome of this action? No database connection * What outcome did you expect instead? Database connection :-) my default installtion of mysql does not listen via IPv6 protocol for connections, only via IPv4 protocol. Here is the output of netstat: root@g6 (~) % netstat --inet --listen -p -n | grep mysql tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 27020/mysqld root@g6 (~) % netstat --inet6 --listen -p -n | grep mysql (no output given) Would it be possible to make mysql listen on IPv6 with a special configuration option (I don't know) or is it a bug? I was not not able to find the option in the default configuration files.
