I can connect to mysql with mysql -u dbname -p
When I start MySQL Administrator v 1.1.6 it says Could not connect to host 'localhost'. MySQL Error Nr. 2002 Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) ...then I Click on Details and enter, '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' And can connect, no problem. Doesn't the Administrator look to /etc/my.conf for the socket location info? This is my my.conf file [mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock log-error=/var/lib/mysql/mysqlerrorlog old_passwords=1 [mysql.server] user=mysql basedir=/var/lib [mysqld_safe] err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid Thanks Jim -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
