I can connect to mysql with
mysql -u dbname -p
When I start MySQL Administrator v 1.1.6 it says
Could not connect to host 'localhost'.
MySQL Error Nr. 2002
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111)
...then I Click on Details and enter, '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'
And can connect, no problem.
Doesn't the Administrator look to /etc/my.conf for the socket location info?
This is my my.conf file
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
log-error=/var/lib/mysql/mysqlerrorlog
old_passwords=1
[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/var/lib
[mysqld_safe]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
Thanks
Jim
