In my Linux machine the MySQL 3.x is running (installed via RPM, using /var/lib/mysql/mysql.soc). I am trying to login using following command but get the error as followed.
[tom@host01 ~]$ mysql -u root test ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) Then I tried using -S /var/lib/mysql/mysql.soc and it worked. My main objective is to access the database via Java. When I try to get the connection I get the error as 'Access denied ....' > I suspect that the socket information need to be provided somewhere in the "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb". How to resolve this problem? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
