As I was having problems with mysql and already I had done nothing with
it I decided to do a "rpm -e " to mysql packages and removed
/var/lib/mysql directory as well. Then I reinstalled it...
Problem is that there is no socket file now, so when I execute myql
client it complaints:
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' exists!
How can I make the socket file I am missing?? (Have googled around and
have seen this is even in faqs, but they don't explain how a socket file
is done).
