Hi, I'm new to MySql and to this list. I'm confused and lost. I installed MySQL in a Mandrake box and with no problem at all, just followed the installation procedures. Then I created a database, tables etc. All just fine. Then I connected the database with a Domino application, again everything fine, MySQL as the data repository and Domino application as the data entry. Suddenly, the communication broke! Domino was saying that was "not possible to connect with the external system". I tested the data source in my Win2000 server, the connection was OK; I did I few queries manually, fine. Then I thought that the "problem must be with Domino", but I decided, just in case, to quit the MySQL server, reboot the Linux and....
I'm not able to start the MySQL server, mysqladmin says that cannot connect through socket, I don't find the my.conf. server.start, server.stop and mysql.sock anywhere, anymore!! It seems to me that MySQL simply vanished from the box after the reboot!! Why? Any ideas? What can I do now? I'm running Mandrake 9.0, MySql 3.23.54a (RPM) I appreciate any help from you. I have no idea what it is going on and how to fix it.
