On my machine, mysql.sock is in /var/lib/mysql. Perhaps that's the problem, it's just somewhere else. I don't know off-hand, but I'd guess there's some config variable you need to set or specify when you run configure on the php source to tell it where to find that socket. -- David Hollister Furthurnet - Free, legal P2P - share the tunes: http://furthurnet.org -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
