I have an existing installation of MySQL on my system. The InstantRails docs say it is self-contained and includes MySQL. When I start InstantRails.exe it complains that the MySQL port is already occupied by the MySQL server daemon. Can/should I reconfigure InstantRails straightforwardly to work with the existing MySQL installation? If not, can I reconfigure the InstantRails version to work on another port so it doesn''t interfere with the existing installation? I didn''t see anything in the FAQs about this so your advice appreciated. Many thanks in advance.. Steve -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Instantrails-users] Instaling InstantRails w/ existing MySQL
I have a similar arrangement. The database I want to work with is already installed. I just let the InstantRails MySQL server fail on startup. Then connect to the existing MySQL database. works for me :) -Larry On 5/10/06, s <networks1 at cox.net> wrote:> > I have an existing installation of MySQL on my system.
