Set different default ports for MySQL to avoid port conflict with packages

MySQL in Bitnami MediaWiki uses these ports by default: 3306 for "client" and "manager", 3307 for "mysqld"

I'm not sure but I think that might prevented me from running for me since I got the mysql-server mysql-client packages installed on my GNU/Linux machine. However, I solved this by changing the ports for MySQL in Bitnami MediaWiki and rebooting

Can you please change the default ports to something completely different to avoid confusion (example: 3316 for "client" and "manager", 3317 for "mysqld")?

For example, the port for Apache in Bitnami MediaWiki is 8080 (not 81) to make it clear that it doesn't use port 80-ish.

Hi @davidhedlund999,

Please note that our installer uses the default ports when installing the different components of the stack. That means that MySQL will use 3306 and Apache will use the 80 port (if you install the stack using admin privileges) or the 8080 one (if you don't use admin privileges when installing the application)

Apart from that, the installer will ask for a different port in case the default one is in use. For example, if you already have another MySQL server running in the 3306 port, the installer will ask you to set a different port because 3306 is in use. In case you installed the stack when the other MySQL server was stopped, the installer used 3306 as MySQL port and you will need to manually edit the configuration of MySQL to modify its port (you already did it)

I hope this information helps
