Installed MySQL Binary, previous attempt with 'RPM' failed. From the Binary
install everything seems ok, however when I attempt to start the mysqld, and
run test to check it, I get a failure message as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql-standard-4.0.13-pc-linux-i686 ./bin/mysqladmin version
./bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed.
error: '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!
There is in fact no socket in the /tmp directory, and I can not find a
way to create this socket.
>How-To-Repeat:
I have removed the program and all directories/subdirectories several times and
keep coming up with the same problem.
