Hi,
I just installed MySQL via rpms on a fresh installation of Redhat 7 pro
server. It seems fine at first and it seems to be running. When I check
the process with: ps aux |grep mysql, I get:
root 925 0.0 0.4 1516 588 pts/0 S 23:28 0:00 grep mysq
But when I try: mysqladmin -p ping
I get:
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysq'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' e
I'm a newbie at Linux, and an experienced user of MySQL but a newbie
Administrator. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
-John
