Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB Community" by chuck_lyon_g. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/cant-connect-to-mariadb-through-mysql-command-line-client/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list.
-------------------------------- I have installed the xampp stack which now includes MariaDB. I have been connecting to it with phpMyAdmin and php scripts through Apache as localhost. This all works with no problem. Today I tried to use the mysql command line tool and got the following error: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2 "No such file or directory") I checked, and indeed that path does not exist. I did, however find the following path: /opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.soc Is it possible that the xampp stack installs the database files in a non-standard location and I need to tell mysql about the change? If so, how? -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/cant-connect-to-mariadb-through-mysql-command-line-client/ _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
