Socket not found

2011-10-09 Thread Peter Schrock
I just loaded and built three different versions of mysql and all three
versions have given me the same results. When trying to change the password
to root, this is what I get:

./mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
(2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!

Help please.

Peter

Hey Peter,

2 options;

Check the socket key-value in the my.cnf file under the client section.
Explicitly tell mysqladmin what one to use with the relevant cmd line
option. See the documentation for syntax.

Hi,

I had the same problem recently restart the server so it can create your socket 
again and it should be all right.

 
Best regards,
Javad

/tmp/ is a really bad location because tmpwatch is killing old files there
and a mysqld usually runs for weeks - no idea why this is the upstream
default and why mysqld does not recognize this and restore the file

fedora is using /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock as configure-option and all
applications like php, dbmail... are also compiled fpr this location

what stupid question?
if you have internet access, can open other websites and write
mails and you fail only to connect to one server it should
be clear that this server is down - what else?

Hi Carlos,

I want to download the pdf documents as shown on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/.

But I don't see these pdf documents on
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/. In case you know where to download
the pdf documents, would you please let me know?

I'm not sure who are in charge of these two URLs. I guess either links
on http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ should be fixed or downloads.mysql.com
should be fixed.

 if you have internet access, can open other websites and write
 mails and you fail only to connect to one server it should
 be clear that this server is down - what else?


   1. server does not exist (iamsorude.mysql.com)
   2. dns problem
   3. routing problem from a specific location
   4. intermittent website problem

but most of all , as you have already been told, reply only if you have
something useful to say and in a non rude way.
just ignore all of us stupid that ask stupid questions, do you think you an
make it?

Thanks

Why the same command have different results when it is in a bash script and when it is not?

2011-10-09 Thread Peng Yu
Hi,

It is seems strange to me why the same command mysql -hlocalhost
-uxxx when it is run from the command line, it will show an error.
When it is run in a bash script, it runs fine. I guess this might be
described somewhere, but I'm yet to find the answer. Does anybody know
why this happens and how to make the command line version working?

~$ mysql -hlocalhost -uxxx
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'xxx'@'localhost' (using
password: YES)
~$ cat `which mysqllocalhostxxx.sh `
#!/usr/bin/env bash

mysql -hlocalhost -uxxx
~$  mysqllocalhostxxx.sh
