last night i was trying to do a fresh mysql install, but i had problems with depends.

when i tried removing the mysql rpm, it said that it had some Perl-DBD depend. and when i tried to remove the Perl-DBD rpm, it said it had a mysql depend.

catch22

so i just re-installed mysql-server rpm before i installed apache/php.

it seems to work correctly locally, .. i can login with the mysql client, and i can navigate through my databases, .. however when i try to connect externally ( from this web server ) i get this error:

Warning: Lost connection to MySQL server during query in /path/to/connection/script

i have granted external access to the user that i'm connecting with. i'm thinking of just installing mysql from scratch too.
