Hi,
Iam getting the error "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket" whenever Iam trying to start mysql prompt. Kindly Help. Following is the trace. Iam using an Unix Solaris8.
svtlab7/opt/mysql/bin% mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
svtlab7/opt/mysql/bin% ls /tmp/mysql.sock /usr/local/bin/ls: /tmp/mysql.sock: No such file or directory
svtlab7/opt/mysql/bin% ps -aef | grep mysqld root 16448 16422 0 12:23:59 pts/5 0:00 grep mysqld root 9848 1 0 Aug 14 ? 0:00 /bin/sh ./bin/safe_mysqld --defaults-extra-file=/opt/ALAams/ams4.4.7/config/mys root 9866 9848 0 Aug 14 ? 0:01 /opt/mysql/bin/mysqld --defaults-extra-file=/opt/ALAams/ams4.4.7/config/mysql.c svtlab7/opt/mysql/bin%
It seems the mysqld is running, but still Iam getting "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket " error
thanks, -raj
