I'm trying to switch from sqlite to mySQL and need a little assistance with what goes in the database connection field in universe_wsgi.ini.

For instance, if I set up the following mySQL database: database = galaxy_test user = galaxy password = password

what would I use to connect to this. I have tried using

mysql:///galaxy_test?unix_socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock but I cannot connect as it looks like a username and password are expected.

Hi Shaun, Try the following: mysql://galaxy:password@/galaxy_test?unix_socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock --nate
