Hi

I have just upgraded my MySQL from version 3.23 to 4.0.13.

However I cannot start the server. When I type mysqld_safe & I get the following :

[1] 1730
Linux:/# starting mysqld-max daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 
030529 11:10:51 mysqld ended
[1]+ Done       mysqld_safe

When I type mysql at the Linux:/# prompt, I get the following :
Error 2002 : Can't connect to local MYSQL server through socket 
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2).

I looked for the file mysql.sock in /var/lib/mysql/ but it was not there.

I used "Find File" in Linux and it could not find mysql.sock anywhere on the system.

I remember that the file mysql.sock was found at /var/lib/mysql/ in version 3.23.

Can you please help ?

These are the details of my system :
SuSe Linux O.S  version 8.1 Professional
Kernel version 2.4.19
Machine - Pentium 4 2.00 GHz (Dell optiplex GX260)

Thank you

Rehaz.
