I am finishing my mail server config and just trying to get the mysql
login working - it fails to connect and thorws the following error
Mar 21 21:58:21 mail0 authdaemond: failed to connect to mysql server
(server=localhost, userid=courier): Can't connect to local MySQL
server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock.' (2)
Mar 21 21:58:21 mail0 couriertcpd: LOGIN FAILED, [EMAIL PROTECTED],
ip=[::ffff:192.168.10.200]
Mar 21 21:58:21 mail0 couriertcpd: authentication error: Input/output
error
The socket exists
# ll /tmp/mysql.sock
srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 Mar 21 21:53 /tmp/mysql.sock
and mysql seems to be working fine using the same credentials
# mysql -S /tmp/mysql.sock -u courier -pxxxxxx
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 7 to server version: 5.0.22
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql>
some bits from the my.cnf
[client]
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
[mysqld]
port = 3306
datadir = /var/lib/mysql
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
any ideas as i am a bit stumped
in the end i resolved this by removing the use of sockets from
authdaemond and used tcp connections instead
