[rt-users] RT Windows Version Help

[Dennis Christilaw]

Ryan,

Thank you for your prompt reply and the information that you provided.

I ran the FPORT tool you pointed me to and got the following out of it:

1568  mysqld-nt      ->  8285  TCP   C:\Program
Files\OurInternet\Common\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt.exe

Ok, so based on the information above, we can see that it is listening port
8285. 

When I try to connect to the SQL Server via port 8285, it tells me that it
can not find a MySQL Server on that port.

Is there any other way that I can access the DB directly. I would like to
populate the data base with information for existing customers and so forth
and would like to save time by NOT having to manually input the data... :o)

Thanks again

Dennis Christilaw

I can't tell you the default MySQL port used in the Windows RT bundle,
but I can help you try to figure it out.

If you know you have MySQL running, you can try to use the command
`netstat -a` to view open (LISTENING) ports and try to deduce which port
is being used by which app.

You can also use a tool called fport which tries to match applications
to the open ports on your machine.

Hello,

 

I am currently running the Windows Version of RT (found here:
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?WindowsOSInstallGuide).

 

I have everything installed and up and running. I would like to look at
and administer the MySQL Database using the MySQL Control Center and
MySQL Administrator (found at http://www.mysql.com/products/). The only
thing I need is the port to tell the application to find the Database
Server on my server. The default port of 3306 does not work; I have also
tried 8285 with no success.

 

Any help or insight would be appreciated.

 

Thank you,
