Using named pipes in Windows - Install.php changes

[Greenhorn]

Hi, I have just installed the product and my MySQL setup is using Named Pipes.  I found that the install.php had a bit of an issue with this so I made some changes.  Hope these'll help somebody and maybe make it into the product.  Other than the install script, the rest seemed to work fine with the named pipe.

Line 218:
has:  if(!isset($values['dbPass'])) $values['dbPass'] = ini_get("mysqli.default_pw");
added:  if(!isset($values['dbSocket'])) $values['dbSocket'] = ini_get("mysqli.default_socket");
 
line 233:
has:  $this->input('dbPort', 'DB Port', $values['dbPort'], true);
added:  $this->input('dbSocket', 'DB Socket', $values['dbSocket'], true);
 
line 275:
was:   $fields = array('dbUser', 'dbName', 'dbPass', 'dbHost', 'dbPort'); 
became:   $fields = array('dbUser', 'dbName', 'dbPass', 'dbHost', 'dbPort', 'dbSocket');

line 283:
was:   if(!$values['dbUser'] || !$values['dbName'] || !$values['dbPort']) {
became:   if(!$values['dbUser'] || !$values['dbName'] || !( $values['dbPort'] || $values['dbSocket']) ) {

line 289:
was:   $mysqli = new mysqli($values['dbHost'], $values['dbUser'], $values['dbPass'], $values['dbName'], $values['dbPort']);
became:   $mysqli = new mysqli($values['dbHost'], $values['dbUser'], $values['dbPass'], $values['dbName'], $values['dbPort'], $values['dbSocket']);

line 336:
had:    "\n\$config->dbPort = '$values[dbPort]';" .
added:   "\n\$config->dbSocket = '" . addslashes($values['dbSocket']) ."';" .
 

This seemed to do the trick for me.

Hope it helps somebody.

I use unix sockets in my dev environment too and am surprised to find just one of you here.

I opened an issue to see if it gets in.
