I have just installed 'MySQL-server' and
'MySQL-client' onto a Mandrake 9.1 system.

The two RPMs installed without error and running mysql
from the shell was fine and did what was expected of
it.

I have now rebooted the system and when I go to the
shell to issue the 'mysql' command I get the following
error:

ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'

What has happened and what needs to be done to get
things going again ?

Pete
