Is MySQL running?
Use Process Viewer to see if there is an entry for mysqld.
If not, I would ask if you issued the install_db command and then
started mysql.

Hi everyone,
I am just starting to work with MySql on MAC OS X.When i
installed mysql i got the following message :
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! This is
done with: /usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h localhost -p password
'new-password'
However, when I try the first command, it gives me the error:
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) although the mysqld dameon is running.
When i try to execute the 'mysql' client it connects properly with the
server but i am unable to execute any command from the client since I
dont have a valid user id and password combination.
So please let me know , how to set up a working root account for
mysql.
