I wanted a clarify my post a little bit, because I beleive I missed a few details...

I know this is not the case because if the server (mysqld) is not running it would give the following error: # mysql ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) I see that your new error is: > ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' > (using password: YES) Did you add the correct system root password to your /etc/mysql/my.cnf file? After I do that I can run mysql with no -p parameter at all. # mysql Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 5 to server version: 4.1.14-log Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. But if I enter the wrong root password in that file I get this error when connecting: # mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) jmd0 ~ # John ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
