Hi,

I'm trying to work with Wordmove and when i push using the "Wordmove push --all", i get only one error that I just can't get it to work. It's in the last step, connection with my local mysql. I'm on a mac with MAMP.

mysqldump: Got error: 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (61) when trying to connect

Any idea why? or how to solve this?

Cheers,

Hi,

Wordmove simply runs mysqldump from your $PATH. You should first check if you can connect to your DB using mysqldump in your terminal.

Possible scenarios are:

mysql server not running
mysql server not configured to listen on expected port (configurable)
you have many mysql instances on your system and trying to connect to the wrong one (almost a $PATH problem)
