PacsOne Server

The pacsone installation reported no errors and I can see the login page successfully along with an anitspam code in blue text. Also, the name of database I entered during installation is listed as the only entry in the pulldown menu. However, when I attempt to login, I get the message:

Could not connect to database pacsone_1 as User: pacsone_1

I have confirmed that the mysql password is correct for the user pacsone_1 by using the mysql command line.

After overcoming previous imagick.so issues, I am now stuck on this one.

Did you check if the mysql/mysqli PHP extension is loaded from the output of the test page?

http://localhost/pacsone/Hello.php

Yes, mysql mysqli and mysqlnd are all shown on the phpinfo() page. The version is 5.05.

Using the mysql command interface, I confirmed that the user and database created by the pacsone install are there. The login page does show the db name so the connection is at least *partially* there.

Did you check the Session.save_path setting from the output of the test page, and make sure it's set to a valid local directory?

http://localhost/pacsone/Hello.php

session.save_path is set to /tmp and that folder does exist. In /tmp, I see several files with names such as sess_43uohk26htfs576pj1176af483

Below are the contents of the pacsone log file. There is an error reported for binding to the specified DICOM listening port (3010). Is this a serious problem?

Can you check the configuration section for the mysql/mysqli extension configuration section, and see if the MySQL socket name matches with what's currently being used by MySQL on your server? If not, you'll need to configure the socket name to match with the non-default socket name being used.

This usually means port 3010 was already in use by another application. To verify this, you can stop PacsOne Server and run the netstat command to check if port 3010 is in use:

I finally found the problem.

The path to the mysql socket was incorrect in the php.ini file. I was careful to enter the correct path into the pacsone installation and it appeared correctly in the .ini created for my pacsone instance, but that wasn't enough. The path must also be correct in the php.ini file. The pacsone installation instructions don't mention checking the path to the mysql socket in php.ini. Perhaps it should be added - at the very least to the troubleshooting section.

thanks,

Thanks for the suggestion and we'll add the above comments about the MySQL socket name to the next rev of the PacsOne Server Installation Guide.
