[Rails] Can’t connect to MySQL server on ‘localhost’
Raw
gistfile1
My simple work around was going to config/database.yml file and changing the host to use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost as follows.
development:
adapter: mysql2
encoding: utf8
reconnect: false
database: quiz_development
pool: 5
username: root
password:
host: 127.0.0.1
