I am using the current HEAD of asterisk and for asterisk-addons. I have been trying to setup realtime mysql voicemail but no sucess. I keep getting this error below. The necessary modules are loaded, res_config_mysql.so ... Any pointers will help. Thanks mail*CLI> realtime mysql status Aug 24 00:56:50 ERROR[963]: res_config_mysql.c:596 mysql_reconnect: MySQL RealTime: Failed to connect

Thanks John, You are my savior. This is such a great relief. Apparently realtime will not use either '127.0.0.1' or 'localhost' to connect to the database. I had to use the actual IP address attached to the NIC before it worked. My OS is Debian just a note and Asterisk HEAD from August 20, 2005 Details below for those who might be swimming in the same pool with me.
