Hey All,

I've got an odd problem.  I've configured SER to talk to MySQL located on the localhost successfully.  However, I now want to move my MySQL database to a separate server from SER for performance reasons.

The problem is that now I've moved the database server and changed the db_url in my ser.cfg file and SER is still looking for the local socket in /tmp/mysql.sock. 

My db_url in ser.cgi looks like this:

# -- auth params --

modparam("auth_db", "calculate_ha1", yes)

modparam("auth_db", "password_column", "password")

modparam("auth_db", "db_url", "mysql://ser:heslo@db1-grv1/ser")

user:ser

pass:heslo

host:db1-grv1

db1-grv1 is mapped to the mysql server IP in the /etc/hosts file.  I can connect fine remotely using the "mysql" client tool and the user/pass above.

However, when I start SER I get the following ...

Listening on

              my.ip.iz.her [my.ip.iz.her]:5060

Aliases: my.hst.iz.her:5060

WARNING: no fork mode

 0(28939) mod_init(): Error while connecting database

 0(28939) init_mod(): Error while initializing module usrloc

Any suggestions?  Is my syntax for the "db_url" parameter correct? 

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
