If you do not specify another location, then you should find it as /tmp/mysql.sock. This file only exists, if the mysql-daemon is running. Wolfgang Arendt Vodafone TeleCommerce GmbH SW Test & Config.

Hi all. I want to know where is file mysql.sock. I ask it because I change the my.cnf configuration file placed in /etc directory with one of the example configuration files from directory support-files from MySql source. I has an option for variable socket and it puts socket=/tmp/mysql.sock, but I don't find this files and nows the mysqld crashes. Thanks in advance. Iago. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
