Goodday, I have been able to successfully install Apache, Php and, MySQL in windows environment. But now i want to do the same in linux, I'm using slackware8, and I installed apache, and php first I tested it and it run fine, then i started to install mysql package, the one included in my slackware cd.
I installed it by... #installpkg mysql.tgz and it comleted without any errors and warnings. But when i tried to run # mysql or #safe_mysqld I get this message... ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) then when i check my "/var/lib/mysql/myhostname.err" is see the following: 020119 16:26:30 mysqld started /usr/libexec/mysqld Ver 3.23.39 for slackware-linux-gnu on i386 .......... ........... .......... wait_timeout current value: 28800 020119 16:26:30 mysqld ended 020119 16:26:46 mysqld started 020119 16:26:46 /usr/libexec/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13) 020119 16:26:46 mysqld ended what could be the problem? are there other packages that i need to insatll aside from the mysql.tgz.
