Hi.
I don't know much about BASE 1.2 but I think that you must have the
MySQL running for stopBase.php to work. And you must also have MySQL
running to be able to upgrade from 1.2.14 to 1.2.17. So you have to find
a way to start the MySQL server again.

I am an extremely (completely) new user to BASE, and I was tasked with
migrating from Base 1.2.14 to BASE2. Unfortunately, it seems, I started by
installing BASE2, and doing all the other system upgrades necessary for
that, which included updating MySQL from 4.1 to 5.0.27. When I did this, I
had stopped the 4.1 version, which I had problems restarting. However, to
do the migration in BASE, I apparently have to update to 1.2.17 first,
then do the migration to BASE2, and to do the first upgrade, I need to
stop the old version of BASE 1.2.14 (Does all this sound correct so
far?), which won't stop on this error:
# stopBase.php
PHP Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) in
/usr/local/base-1.2.14/include/drivers/mysql.inc.php on line 86
mysql_pconnect() failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
Could not connect to database 'base' at host 'localhost' as user 'apache'
BASE appears to be running, but connecting to the database failed.
My question then is whether there is a way to stop BASE without having
access to the old version of MySQL, or is there a way to make BASE 1.2.14
run on the new version of MySQL without stopping it?
I tried changing the 'base' db BaseControl table to have startscripts = 0,
as mentioned in the forums for after someone else had a problem where
MySQL went down before BASE was stopped, but this didn't give me any
different results.
Any suggestions from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
