So for awhile I've had had Leopard and Mysql 5 running in concert with Rails. I installed the macports version of Mysql5 because my original installation apparently didn't have all the libraries that the plugin thinking_sphinx needs. Long story short, I'm getting this error message when trying to run a task with this thinking_sphinx plugin:
ERROR: index 'item_core': sql_connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock' (2) (DSN=mysql://root:*...@localhost:3306/css_development) The Rails app works fine...that is, I can connect to my original installation of mysql5 and my database is still there. The better_sphinx plugin is expecting mysql to be run from where ports installed it...so how would I move my existing data over there? Sorry if that's an extremely dumb question, I only have a vague understanding of mysql's operation and how MacPorts works. I followed the instructions here: http://www.fozworks.com/2008/9/5/rake-installation-of-sphinx-in-mac-osx And you can see that the build is expecting Mysql where MacPorts installed it (opt/local)
