Hi
I downloaded and installed the latest i386 RPM from MySql.com on a RH7 box.
When I try to contact the mysql server i get the following error:
[someone@somemachine ~]$ mysqladmin ping
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' exists!
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock exists. My syslog doesnt log anything from MySql.
Port 3306 is free and the DB answers when I telnet to the port but reports
the error below:
IHost 'somehost.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL
serverConnection closed by foreign host.
I am using tcpwrappers but local host (and somehost.com) has been added to
hosts.allow.
Any and all ideas as to what I am doing wrong or missing greatly
appreciated!
Thanks,
Damian
