Thank you very much. This did the trick! The /var/lib/mysql directory needed to be readable and executable. I don't know why the Kernel upgrade changed this but it's good now. -Craig On Thu, 22 Mar 2001, Gerald Clark wrote: > The full path to the mysql.sock file must be readable, and searcha

The full path to the mysql.sock file must be readable, and searchable for the client to find and open the socket. Craig Cummings wrote: > > Hi there, > > I recently upgraded my Linux kernel to 2.4.2 and my perl DBI/DBD > and now MySQL is behaving strangely. If I'm logged into my system

ERROR 2002 question

Hi there, I recently upgraded my Linux kernel to 2.4.2 and my perl DBI/DBD and now MySQL is behaving strangely. If I'm logged into my system as root I can see that the mysql server is up and running and I can access it just fine using either the root database login or a user login. Howe
