I had mysql running great on my Gentoo server, but there was some kind of a problem with my host and my machine had to be rebooted. I restart mysql with /etc/init.d/mysql start (Gentoo syntax), but I'm having some problems:
localhost / # mysqladmin test mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists! localhost / # /etc/init.d/mysql start * WARNING: "mysql" has already been started. There is no /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock file, and mysql.err doesn't have anything to say. Can anyone help? - Grant __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
