Ok, just an update, I have resolved the issue with qloader being able to talk to the MySQL database. What we are seeing now is that QM is seeing the queues on Asterisk and when calls come in. However, it is not seeing any agents being logged in through QM. I can have up real-time monitoring and see the queue there and the call on hold for that queue, and no agents available. I can log-in on another browser with the agent that I created and join that agent to the queue. Unfortunately QM does not add the agent to that queue, even though it said that the requested action was performed.
For the connection tester, it shows calls coming in, and the queues that they are going to, however it doesn't show any agents listed. This is the same data that I see when looking at the MySQL database.
