SVN not using the right port for mySQL?

Added by Tom A over 15 years ago

Hello redmine gurus...

I have a set up a redmine installation in ubuntu running mongrel clusters with SVN and mysql.

I almost everything working except the SVN. Redmine has access to SVN and can create repositories, my problem is that i cannot access SVN from the browser to see those repositories.

When i try to access my SVN site, i get a 500 internal server error. Looking in my apache2 log i can see the following error:

[Tue Jul 15 17:26:34 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.59] Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value at /usr/lib/apache2/Redmine.pm line 142.\n
DBI connect('dbname=redmine;host=127.0.0.1','redmine',...) failed: could not connect to server: Connection refused
Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

From this error, i can tell that that the connection should be refused since mySQL is open on its default port of 3306.

My question is, how can i fix this so that SVN accesses the redmine mySQL db on the right port. obviously the file /usr/lib/apache2/Redmine.pm is a redmine file.

Can anyone shed some light on this, or am i going in the wrong direction with this error.

thanks.

Hello,

I have an similar problem using a mysql V5 db. Some provider require a IP/port combination for using a v5 db.

During Installation the mysql host called 127.0.0.1:3307 isn t detected.

> rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production" 
(in /home/www/cgi-bin)
rake aborted!
Unknown MySQL server host '127.0.0.1:3307' (3)

I think the routine cannot handle [Ip : Port]

Me again,

After much pain and crying i figured my problem, so Knut maybe this can help you too if you are using the same thing or have done the same thing i did.

I used this guide: http://www.drinkingbird.net/blog/articles/2008/02/27/setting-up-a-redmine-site-on-ubuntu to help me set up my redmine install.

Since that guide uses PosgreSQL and i use mySQL, i finally managed to find where i overlooked things.

In /etc/apache2/sites-available/subversion (subversion being the name of my subversion file):

i had the line:

PerlSetVar dsn DBI:pg:dbname=redmine;host=127.0.0.1

and i did not notice that the DBI:pg uses the postgresql connection, so a simple change to:

PerlSetVar dsn DBI:mysql:dbname=redmine;host=127.0.0.1

did the trick.

Hi Tom,

I think that isn´t the solution for my problem. During the normal installation I have this port problem with my mysql db.
Thanks for the answer, I will post my trouble in a separately thread.
