Is this configurable?

Is this configurable? Yes. In the main Instant Rails menu (press the Alt-key or click on the “I” button), select the menu command “Configure \>\> MySQL”. This will bring up the MySQL configuration template file in notepad. Add a new line: port=3210 (or whatever port number you want). When you save the configuration file, Instant Rails will detect this and automatically restart MySQL. Curt ---
