Setting up Numbas LTI using MySQL - how to specify port number?

[deevan shafait‏]

Hi,

I need help with connecting to a MySQL database running on a non-standard (3306) port. How do I specify the port when running the setup script? 

python first_setup.py

Thanks,

Naveed

Hi Naveed,

There isn't a question for this in the setup script, but you can edit the file numbasltiprovider/settings.py afterwards, and change the settings under DATABASE, adding a line

 

   'PORT': 3306,

See the Django documentation for the settings that are available: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/settings/#databases

Hi Christian,

Thanks, that works.

It would be useful to have the option to select the database port during the installation process.
