G'day, I keep on getting the following error message when trying to connect to MySQL - ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'
This can be fixed by creating a link from the /tmp/mysql.sock file. Which I have done and still get the same error I have searched on Google and on Mysql.com (plus a whole range of other Linux sites) and I realize the default directory for Mysql was the directory as it comes with RH7.2 - I have re-installed a newer version of MySQL with RPMs and still get the same error. Before I try re-install with the binary version has anybody had a similar problem ? Thanks.
