Hello all, after Installing mysql I started the mysql daemon.. The I tried to log in to my mysql database and got the message could not find mysql.sock in /tmp.
In the mysql-configuration file /etc/my.cnf (in my redhat system 8.0) I changed the place for the socket file from "socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock" to "socket=/tmp/mysql.sock". That doesn´t work. What can I do? Perhaps put a link ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock in /tmp????
