I'm running MySQL 4.0.20 on Mac OS X 10.3.4. I've added the my.cnf to the etc directory,
Which one, and why? Did you restart the server after changing my.cnf?
but mySQL server returns the following error:
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
What is the socket supposed to be now? Is the server running? Did you check the error logs?
Removing my.cnf does not solve the problem.
You have to stop and start the server to affect any changes.
I have had to reinstall MySQL to get it working again.
No you didn't. Restarting the server would have sufficed.
Any help?
