I can't connect to my database via mysql....
This is the load of crap I'm getting.......
I would appreciate any input or feedback you have.
We are on a virtual server......we set up with this
company AITcom.net to be resellers.
First of all we are getting this error message when we try to connect to the database.
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
Here is their version of an answer to my problem....
I wanted to get back to you as soon as possible with an answer. Here is what I
found. The Pearl modules will not run in a change root file system. The user name
that is being called does not exist on your server. Also, there may be a problem with
the version of Pearl being used.
The only solution is to have a dedicated server where you have root access to the
box. Our shared hosting solution is designed for a virtual server using a proprietary
Linux operating system. With a dedicated server, you can have any version of Linux
you would like and any version of Pearl. This would allow you full control over the
server and as you have stated this works on every other server you have installed. I
know this has been a frustrating time for you and I would like to offer a solution. I
will transfer all monies paid to AIT over to the cost of a dedicated server 4. If
this solution is acceptable, please let me know and I will have the necessary paper
work sent to you. I look forward to your response.
Our people are saying that the solution is this.......
