Hi!
I'm totally new to MySQL and databases, I ran the command you suggested and
it went like that:
ei:~>mysql -u root
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)
This is in SuSE Linux, I've installed MySQL on another box with Win98 and
there it works fine. Why is it that I can't log into MySQL in Linux?
Cheers,
ei
