Hi, I'm trying to install the genome browser on my debian machine. I'm following this tutorial: http://enotacoes.wordpress.com/2009/09/03/installing-a-minimal-ucsc-mirror-in-ubuntu-jaunty-64-bits/ (also published on http://xiaofeng1982.blog.163.com/blog/static/315724582011627102816454/)
Now, I meet the terrible-uncrossable-horrific mysql socket issue: if I point my firefox (I know, it's debian, it should not have firefox, but, whatever) to http://localhost/genomebrowser/cgi-bin/hgGateway I get the following message Couldn't connect to database (null) on localhost as hguser. Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) If I run hgGateway from xterm (after copying /var/www/genomebrowser/cgi-bin/hg.conf to ~/.hg.conf) I get the normal html page of hgGateway. Sincerely, I don't know what to do, neither what to search. Somebody have met the same problem? _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
