That's ok, thank you very much for all the info. I got it working for
now with a
ln -s /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock /tmp/mysql.sock
With this link it works like a charm..
I am still trying to figure out the reason why it DOES work on Linux
and MacbookPro without the link. On the Linux box I see that there is
no /tmp/mysql.sock or a link. Instead on Debian Etch it is at
/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
That's what it is set at in the /etc/mysql/my.cnf and debian.cnf
I also know that Rails defaults to /tmp/mysql.sock without it being
set to some other location in the database.yml file. Since the socket
attriubute is not set it should default to /tmp/mysql.sock.
youre sure none of the following exist on either box?
/etc/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf /opt/local/etc/mysql5/my.cnf
They exist on the Debian boxes as I've mentioned above, but on the Macs
the only my.cnf is in the ports distribution files. Not copied to any location.
a diff of the result from
mysql> show variables;
should tell you whether its the configuration ...
This is from Debian
| slow_launch_time | 2 |
| socket | /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock |
| sort_buffer_size | 2097144 |

I'll do check tomorrow on the iMac which I am sure will be
/opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock
Thanks for your efforts :)
