My $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] = ::1, unless I change the bind-address in my.ini to match it, when I connect to my database (with PDO) with the hostname 'localhost' it takes ~2 seconds.

When I change bind-address to '::1' or '::', the time to connect with mysql becomes negligible.

However, when I try to 'stop MySQL', it hangs and eventually I get this error and I have to kill the process.

 

It appears my.ini doesn't handle ipv6 addresses well. Is there any way to fix this? if not, please fix this in a later build.

 

I loves this software, I've struggled with XAMPP and WAMP in the past, but this is far superior IMO.

I just realised phpMyAdmin returns this error:

 

MySQL said:

Cannot connect: invalid settings.

When I have bind-address = ::1 in my.ini

Please help!!!

Have you tried just comment out the line?
