I don't know if you have fixed this probelm, but I had the same problem on Red Hat
7.0. I had installed the rpm files from MySQL.com and RedHat.com. The problem was
solved by doing the following.
chmod 755 the "mysql" directory that contains the "mysql.sock" file.
I am currently running the
I recently installed MySQL from the Red Hat 7.0 CD. When I try to access MySQL as a
standard user I get this error.
"Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket'(111)"
Any idea on what I need to do to correct this?
