I've been laboring way too long to take it any more. So I'm stopping to ask for 
directions. I have an Ultra 80 where I'm trying to get CSKmysql_1.2sparc.pkg to 
work with Solaris 10. The install went fine.

I created the database no problem.

But when I go to connect, the ONLY way it will allow a mysql connection is with 
the 
--socket=/tmp/mysqld.sock

This system had the default mysql installed, but a pkgrm was used to remove it. 
It's acting like it wants to find mysql.sock in some other default location, 
regardless of what's in /etc/my.cnf. There is a file in /tmp called mysql.sock. 
Since the reference to the file (--socket) works, I would assume its not a 
permissions problem.

Any help would be appreciated. I need some sleep!

Oh, here's my /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
pid-file = /app/mysqldata/vtpweb.pid 
socket = /tmp/mysqld.sock
port = 3306
basedir = /opt/coolstack/mysql
datadir = /app/mysqldata 
tmpdir = /tmp
bind-address = 192.168.9.4

[client]
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
