From: terrence To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: see above Description: MySQL version 3.23.47 Darwin 5.x When I run mysqladmin version, I get the following message: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!
How-To-Repeat: type bin/mysqladmin -u root shutdown at the root of mysql type bin/mysqladmin version at mysql application root Fix: Perhaps determining the location of mysql.sock. I could not locate in on my machine, thought it supposed to install with mysql binary. >Submitter-Id: <submitter ID> >Originator: Terrence Tyson >Organization: na >MySQL support: [none >Synopsis: missing mysql.sock file >Severity: serious >Priority: medium >Category: mysql >Class: could be either - sw-bug | doc-bug | change-request | support ] >Release: mysql-3.23.47 (Official MySQL binary) >Environment: System: Darwin localhost 5.3 Darwin Kernel Version 5.3: Thu Jan 24 22:06:02 PST 2002; root:xnu/xnu-201.19.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc Some paths: /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/cc Compilation info: CC='cc' CFLAGS='' CXX='c++' CXXFLAGS='' LDFLAGS='' LIBC: lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 15 Mar 15 20:06 /usr/lib/libc.dylib -> libSystem.dylib Configure command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql '--with-comment=Official MySQL binary' --with-extra-charsets=complex --with-server-suffix= --enable-thread-safe-client --disable-shared Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
