Re: always this happenes to me
Two things to check: 1. Ensure the mysql server is running. mysql.sock is automatically created when the server is started. 2. If you still get the error, it may be in another subdirectory, usually var/lib/mysql. Once you locate mysql.sock, modify the my.cnf file to point to the correct location.

Re: always this happenes to me
an error can't connect to MYSQL server through socket /tmp/mysql.sock This is a FAQ. Searching through the archive will get you somewhere around a zillion hits. Get through the filter: mysql, sql, query Bye, B. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
