I'm not sure what your particular problem is, but I went to google and
searched for "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket " and
found lots of info. Forgive me for questioning the obvious, but are you
sure MySQL is running?

Hi,
i have a problem using MySQL (4.0.18) (together) with the current
Bugzilla release.
I think, that during installation of modules some configuration went
wrong
resulting in the error i now have to deal with:
Output of Bugzillas checksetup.pl:
...
Precompiling templates ...
DBI connect(';localhost;3306','bugs',...) failed: Can't connect to
local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) at
./checksetup.pl line 1189
[Thu Apr 29 15:39:47 2004] checksetup.pl: DBI
connect(';localhost;3306','bugs',...) failed: Can't connect to local
MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) at ./checksetup.pl
line 1189
<h1>Software error:</h1>
...
In fact the MySQL installation i use is in /usr/local with the
databases in /usr/local/data.
The file mysql.sock is also in /usr/local/data.
What do i have to do, to get it running.
Thanks in advance
Ronald Nikel
