the mystery of the missing mysql.sock file
Take one perfectly functional production server running 5.0.77. It has been up and running under load for quite some time. I am using xtrabackup for backups and suddenly three or four days ago backup stop running. Investigation shows that the socket file '/tmp/mysql.sock' is no longer there. The mysql server itself is still functioning .. you can specify --host=localhost instead of --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock so the mysql client uses tcp/ip instead of the socket file to connect to the server. - Permissions did not change on the /tmp directory..I checked. - There are no errors in the .err log. - No cron jobs clearing out /tmp. - SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%sock%' displays the proper socket location Any thoughts? I have seen this type of thing occasionally before, but never taken the time to really investigate. I would just restart the server. I will end up having to do so in this case, but I would really like to find out WHY this happened. Is this is bug in the server code? I can't come up with any other explanation. I would love for this to be explainable! thanks, keith -- Chief Training Officer Paragon Consulting Services 850-637-3877
Re: the mystery of the missing mysql.sock file
Presumably someone deleted it :-) You can try an 'lsof -U |grep mysql' to see if any processes still have it open. If the mysqld process still has it open, it's probably not the server. Why do you keep it in /tmp, btw ? My guess would be that someone (or some process) decided it was time to clean /tmp out.

Re: the mystery of the missing mysql.sock file
Thanks Johan. Yes, it shows the mysqld holding it open. Not suprising really I guess. I did check the cron jobs and the history file searching for something/someone who deleted it, but didn't find anything. Still, that is what it looks like happend. I will move the sock file to /var/run/mysql so it is out of the way. thanks, keith On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 11:00 AM, Johan De Meersman vegiv...@tuxera.bewrote: Presumably someone deleted it :-) You can try an 'lsof -U |grep mysql' to see if any processes still have it open.

Re: mysql.sock file exists, but still cannot connect to server
Okay, with the good help I was getting, and looking at the all clues MySQL was giving me, like Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist and Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm', I concluded that the 4.1.9 installation conflicts with the default 4.0.18 installation. For instance, 4.0.18 expects files in /var/mysql and /usr/libexec, but 4.1.9 wants them in /usr/local/mysql, etc. There isn't a mysql/data directory anywhere at all for 4.0.18. The two seem incompatible (at least, it's beyond me...). So, I backed out my 4.1.9 installation, and was able to get things going again under 4.0.18. I guess I'll have to wait until Apple upgrades MySQL with OS X 10.3.8. Thanks to all!

mysqld ended error (but no /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock file exists!)

mysqld is trying to tell you that it doesn't have permission to create /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock to accept incoming connections.

mysql.sock file does not get created
Description: I try to run the mysqld script to start the MySQL server. It starts, then immediately I get a message saying it has ended.

Regarding mysql.sock file
Hello all, I am working with the replication of mysql with selected db. While i was trying to do that suddenly slave machine's mysql.sock file was deleted. So i am not able to enter into mysql. May i know whether there is any other way to get it(mysql.sock) back as i restarted mysql quite ample number of times. Or reinstalling is the only way for getting the file back. Thank you. -- Regards, Charitha. - 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?

At 04:47 PM 05/23/2001, Angerer, Chad wrote: Well.. not sure if this is right but if you start up the mysqld server on startup the mysql.sock should be created in that directory always, so the symbolic link will always point to the same place. Otherwise.. I believe the directory will be in your my.cnf file.. and you can change that to point to the correct path. I hope I am moving along the right path here. Ah, does anyone know what the setting in my.cnf would be? That would be ideal.

mysql.sock file
We have a client program that fails trying to access tmp/mysql.sock on open. It seems that newer servers either dont create the tmp file or store it somewhere else. What can be done to make the existing binary work with both older and newer servers? Is there a my.cnf setting? And also, why has this become an issue? Can it be a build issue with the server? Or is this file being scrubbed by some startup routine (Debian is well-known to do damage upon start up this way)? thanks.

Re: mysql.sock file
I faced the same problem and I solved it by creating a link under tmp called mysqld.sock pointing to my mysql.sock let me know if it helped Siomara From: Dennis [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mysql.sock file Date: Tue, 22 May 2001 16:56:19 -0400 We have a client program that fails trying to access tmp/mysql.sock on open.
