I'm a newbie so this may be a simple one to answer. If you can give me the specific commands that I need to do that would be appricated. Ok, I am running on A Cobalt RAQ 4 Server with MySQL installiaton. one of my sites is running a MySQL database. When he trys connecting to the database, he gets this error on the site: Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) in inc-quickstats.php on line 6 I figured out that the MySQL socket is actually located at: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. The guy is placing the standard MySQL connect in his coding. Do I have to do something on the server itself, or what code do we have to place on the script to tell it manually to go to the correct socket directory. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
