Hi
thanks for your reply.
i found the problem, the problem was due to maintenance activity IT team
rebooted the machine but they didn't start the mysql server after reboot.
i executed mysqld with root credit. i got the below output but still the
cursor not return to prompt
bash-2.03#
in, changed root password, used test database, etc.
Now after reboot I cannot connect. I get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/mysql/bin # ./mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
Please give
# ./mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
Please give options if this involves: manual server start, setting up
autostart, etc.
