Hello, and sorry for the bother with what is probaby a very simple problem.
I'm new to MySQL. I have just installed RedHat 7.2 Linux, and installed the included distribution of MySQL, which is version 3.23.41 When I try to run the mysql program, either by itself, or with any arguments, I get the following error. ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) Could anyone provide advice as to what I need to do to get this running? Thanks for any assistance you can provide. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
