I got this error before too. Here is how I fixed it: (you probably have to do this as root) ln -s /var/tmp/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock whre the default in /etc/my.cnf is socket = /var/tmp/mysql.sock No doubt there is a more elegant way, but my philosophy is, if it works. let it be ;-) Tom ===== Tom Atwater tomath2o.yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
