Question

In the main.php file of the Yii framework, there are some configuration options. This is how it sets up mysql

'db'=>array(
            'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=testdrive',
            'emulatePrepare' => true,
            'username' => 'root',
            'password' => 'root',
            'charset' => 'utf8',
        ),

On my MAMP system, I have to specify the port as 8889. How would I add it into this?

thanks

Answer 1

I added the port like this and it seems to work

'db'=>array(
            'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=localhost;port=8889;dbname=testdrive',
            'emulatePrepare' => true,
            'username' => 'root',
            'password' => 'root',
            'charset' => 'utf8',
        ),
