With MySQL 4.0 when I wanted to run my application on any of the unix boxes I had to set the MYSQL_UNIX_PORT environment variable to point to the location of my socket file. Looking through my 4.1.9 install I no longer see a mysql/socket directory.
However, when I try to connect I get the error: ERROR: Error trying to establish connection: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) Where did it go? Is it no longer needed? Thanks for any information. Barbara -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
