I want to set up a central log server, doing this
on RH9. Using msyslog, a replacement for syslog
which can log to a mysql db. I originally had
msyslogd logging successfully to mysql. Great,
but I want to be able to view my logs via http,
and after having trouble setting up apache with
PHP support and the tie-in to mysql, I decided to
use XAMPP (formerly LAMPP) ver 1.3, which
installs all the components I need apache, PHP,
mysql, PHPAdmin (and other items) as a package.
(I uninstalled mysql and apache first.)
Very nice but now I can't get msyslog to connect
to mysql. In the logs, I have:
om_mysql: sending messages to localhost, database
msyslog, table syslogTB.
om_mysql_write: Lost connection! [Can't connect
to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysq
That last line is truncated in the log. I presume
it would complete with the socket file, which
would be defined in my /etc/my.conf:
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/var/lib
[safe_mysqld]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
Can anyone tell me where to start on this?
Thanks!!
Scott
