I do the usual and get:
[angaqok:~] isuma% fink install mysql
sudo /sw/bin/fink install mysql
Information about 1711 packages read in 2 seconds.
pkg mysql version ###

The following package will be installed or updated:

dpkg -i

Following a previous post, I checked "fink info mysql" and I got the
following:
[angaqok:~] isuma% sudo mysqladmin -u root -h localhost -p password
XXXXXX
Enter password: XXXXXX
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock'
exists!
when I check /tmp, the file "mysql.sock" is not there.
Any hints as to what I could do to correct this?
Thank you in advance!!!
