[asterisk-users] CDR - mysql with asterisk 1.2.12 not working

[Joseph]

I just upgraded to asterisk 1.2.12 from 1.0.1 and I can not get cdr -
mysql to load
I've install asterisk-addon and have cdr_addon_mysql.so in module
directory

In modules.conf I have:
preload => cdr_addon_mysql.so

Should it be "load" or "preload"?
In cdr_mysql.conf (nothing has changed)
[global]
  hostname=localhost
  dbname=asteriskcdrdb
  password=123654
  user=asteriskcdruser

In logs I can see the error:
cdr_addon_mysql.c: cdr_mysql: cannot connect to database server
localhost

Though when I type from commend line:
mysql -uasteriskcdruser -h localhost -p123654
mysql>
I can get in just fine.

What am I missing?
