Can not connect (again)

2002-03-07 Thread dlyles

Ok people, I'm desperate for the help.  I'm going to try to be as detailed
as possible, because I need the two year old explanation.  I recently
installed MySQL on my Cobalt Raq3.  I was running fine, created a db, table
created a user, gave some permissions, and thought I was rolling along.
Somewhere in setting the permissions and using safe_mysql I messed something
up.  I am now getting an Error 2002 can't connect to local Mysql through
socket var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket.  I don't know much about the socket file,
so if that has something to do with the problem, I'll need a brief
explanation.  Can someone PLEASE HELP because I'm desperate to get this
fixed yesterday.

Thank you.

Can not connect again

2002-03-07 Thread dlyles

Ok, that worked.  I started MySQL.  I still don't know how to shutdown 
mysql, or if that was my problem.  Unfortunately, that is the ONLY way 
I can log into mysql.  Anyway, that would be fine, only now I have an 
ASP script but I am a privelegas idiot, so I don't know how to set a 
UID and Password.

Newbie can't start mysql - PLEASE HELP

2002-03-05 Thread dlyles

I think I did something wrong.  It was working OK (not great, but OK).  Now
I can't start mysqld.  (Error 2002 can't connect to MySQL server through
socket /var/lib...).   I don't know if this matters, but for some reason I
deleted a .pid file that I thought was making me not able to start mysqld
and now I can't do anything.  When I try to just enter mysql I get a cannot
access message.  PLEASE HELP

Error 2002 can't connect to MySQL server through socket /var/lib...

2002-03-04 Thread dlyles

This is the message I am getting.  I am currently running MySQL (or trying
to) on a Cobalt Raq3.  I recently uninstalled and reinstalled, but am unable
to remove this message.  I can't start mysql or do anything.  That's the
message I keep getting.  Any ideas?
