I tested it. I have a copy the punbb database on both servers. Posting to one server shows up on both server, which means both instances of punbb is using ONE database server. Therefore it's not using the 'localhost:3399' setting for some reason.

Re: MySQL port number (5 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
So if I'm moving to a new MySQL server WITHOUT reinstalling PunBB, then is there any edits in the database that are necessary?
I ask because right now it doesn't work. I have two MySQL server running, one on port 3306 (default for MySQL) and one on port 3399. When I edit the PunBB config file to use 'localhost:3399' the forum still somehow uses the MySQL server on port 3306 !
Why is this?

How do I set the MySQL port number?
Is it like this:
$db_host = 'localhost:1234';
???
If so then it doesn't seem to work but maybe I'm overlooking something.
