Hi Mike, You have to start the mysql server before you can run the client. Try running "mysqld_safe --user=mysql" from /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin, depending on where you installed it. To see if it is running currently on your machine, try this: ps -ef | grep mysqld Hope this helps... ~~Nick --- On Sat 01/17, Mike Mapsnac < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: From: Mike Mapsnac [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 17 Jan 2004 22:51:29 +0000 Subject: Mysql Installation on Linux: ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server th I just install MYSQL on Linux (Red Hat 9)using this manual:http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Installing_binary.htmlHave no idea what's wrong.
