Trying to use MySQL protocol support and SphinxQL

But unluckily it seems I can't get the layer to work, all I see are my local mysql databases, what am I doing wrong? of course I'm connecting to the correct port.

It seems t开发者_JS百科hat I connect to the default mysql server even if I give a non existant port

Another option to force mysql to connect to the specified port and ignore the socket is to specify the --protocol option explicitly.

I have searchd (SphinxQL) listening on port 9306. To connect: mysql --port=9306 --protocol=tcp
