There's no way to change that in Eventum, which is a bad thing. You can change
the following lines of /path-to-eventum/include/class.db_api.php from:
$dsn = array(
'phptype' => APP_SQL_DBTYPE,
'hostspec' => APP_SQL_DBHOST,
'database' => APP_SQL_DBNAME,
'username' => APP_SQL_DBUSER,
'password' => APP_SQL_DBPASS
);
to:
$dsn = array(
'phptype' => APP_SQL_DBTYPE,
'hostspec' => APP_SQL_DBHOST,
'database' => APP_SQL_DBNAME,
'username' => APP_SQL_DBUSER,
'password' => APP_SQL_DBPASS,
'port' => 3307
);
Or you could simply switch ports on those servers, and things would work just
fine.
