Yes it does, as it is a 'special' file (it's a socket), notice the 's' in the file definition. Link this to /tmp/mysql.sock and you should be ok -----Original Message----- From: Nguyen, Long P (Mission Systems) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 01 July 2004 21:14 To: Yiannis Mavroukakis; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: bugzilla not working now after MySQL re-installed
The 'mysql.sock' file is at /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock with a size of 0 Does this look right? [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql]# pwd /var/lib/mysql [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql]# ls -l mysql.sock srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 Jul 1 11:41 mysql.sock -----Original Message----- From: Yiannis Mavroukakis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2004 12:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: bugzilla not working now after MySQL re-installed The original error might be slightly more cryptic than it intends. It is saying that it cannot connect to your db through /tmp/mysql.sock. Check if your mySQL installation has installed the socket file in another place. If it has, a quick and dirty fix is to soft link the socket file wherever it is to /tmp/mysql.sock i.e. ln -s /usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock Change /usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock to your file. In some distributions it can be found in /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.
