  which means that for a strange reason the server doesn't starts. Do you

 Look at the .err file in /var/lib/mysql

Re: help with mysql.sock error

2001-09-11 Thread harry amarantidis

I had the same problem with suse 7.2. I see that the path to mysql.sock
is /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. this location of mysql.sock was a leftover
from the mysql that i installed from the distribution. the downloaded
version though stores the mysql.sock in /tmp/mysql.sock - i had to tell
a few of my programs to look for it there. may you need to add a line in
your php program to look for it there

good luck

  Subject: 'localhost' problem
 
 
   hello all,
  
   i am running mysql on a red hat linux v7.0 box.
  when i
   am trying to connect to the mysql database to read
  a
   table that is present in the mysql database i am
   facing a strange problem. i am able to get into
  the
   database(named 'newone')  to read the table (named
   'namelist') from the command line on the machine
  that
   is running mysql in any of the following ways:
   # mysql -u myname -p mypassword
   # mysql -u myname -p mypassword -h localhost
   # mysql -u myname -p mypassword -h mydomain.edu
   All these 3 commands are successful, without
  returning
   an error.
   So i have created a php file named 'namelist.php'
  to
   read this 'namelist' table, which reads like the
   following:
  
   html
   head
   titleName List/title
   /head
   body
   ?php
   mysql_connect ('localhost','myname','mypassword')
  or
   die ('bUnable to connect to the database/b');
   mysql_select_db ('newone') or die ('bUnable to
   connect to the database/b');
   $result = mysql_query (select * from namelist);
   printf (First Name: %sbr\n,
  mysql_result($result,
   0, firstname));
   printf (Last Name: %sbr\n,
  mysql_result($result,
   0, lastname));
   ?
   /body
   /html
  
   when i run this php script from the browser, it is
   producing the following error:
  
  
   Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to
   local MySQL server through socket
   '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in
   /var/www/html/namelist.php on line 7
   Unable to connect to the database
  
   But if change the 'localhost' to 'mydomain.edu' in
   line 7 it shows the contents of the table on the
   browser without any glitch. My question is
  eventhough
   if it doesn't complain any thing from the command
  line
   when i specify '-h localhost', why it returns the
   above error when i run the script in a browser? i
  am
   able to reach the index.html page from the browser
  by
   typing any of the following, on the same machine:
   127.0.01
   localhost
   mydomain.edu
   138.xx.xx.xx  --my ip address
  
   Can any one please help me with this.
  
   TIA

Re: @HOSTNAME@error

2001-09-10 Thread harry amarantidis

I checked my boot log and found the follwing errors
/etc/init.d/rc.d/S61mysql: @HOSTNAME@: command not found
/etc/init.d/rc.d/S61mysql: my_print_defaults: command not found

I have checked the manual but could not figure out if this is a problem
or not
mysql seems t run fine for now. What are these commands use for?

any insight would greatly be appreciated
