Birju,
Here's a little Linux/Unix info for you.
The "/tmp/mysql.sock" in question is used for ipc (Inter Process
Communication). This allows other applications to communicate with the mysql
server without using a "TCP/IP" connection. This eliminates the need to pass
everything through the networking code.
In the post below, the person is having problems when trying to connect
through the network layer. It would be like changing your database connect
string to
DBI connect('database=search;host=192.168.1.5','web',...).
As far as the 1045 error, it does not look like you typed everything
correctly. What is the "-number" supposed to be?
