title: MySQL can connect locally but not remotely
body: <p>I'm trying to connect from my ip address to a mobile web app I'm helping to fix so I can test it on my Android phone. However, while the login screen shows up when I access it from localhost AND my ip address, it will only let me login from the localhost address- it doesn't even connect from the ip address.</p>
  
  <p>I'm running MAMP Pro and have unchecked the "Allow local access only". I went into MySQL my.cnf and changed the bind-address from 127.0.0.1 to my own IP. I also commented out the "MAMP_skip-networking_MAMP" line. I then made a user that matches up with the user in config.php, has full access to the database, and set their host to %.</p>
  
  <p>In the config.php file, I've tried changing the hostname to:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>localhost</li>
  <li>localhost:[PORT NUMBER]</li>
  <li>[IP ADDRESS]</li>
  <li>[IP ADDRESS]:[PORT NUMBER]</li>
  <li>/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Still.. nothing. I still can't login when I try to access the site from my IP. Any help/direction would be greatly appreciated.. thank you!</p>
