I downloaded mysqlgui linux semi static binary and installed it. I copy my.cnf to ~/.my.cnf. I set the user name to my user. When I start it up it prompts for password then indicates that it can't connect. I am using the same USER/PASS that I use successfully with "mysql --user=USER --password=PASS". Yet I get the error:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket" (111) My .my.cnf and MySql.options files are below. How do I correct this?
