Hello,
 I have RH 6.1.
 I have mysql 3.22.25 version binary installation
 databases are in /var/lib/mysql
 binaries in /usr/bin/mysql etc
 /var/lib/mysql/mysql.pid
 /var/lib/mysql/=mysql.sock
 and rpm packages:
 perl-DBI-1.13-1,
 perl-DBD-mysql-mysql-1.22.10-1
 perl-5-5.0050
 and binary installation of php 4.04pl
 and it was working perfectly (I have web page written in php and perl),

 Yesterday I have installed from source (to old RH to get binary
 installation) mysql 3.23.55.
 It compiled perfectly and was installed in
 /usr/local/mysql
 databases in
 /usr/local/mysql/var

 I have stoped old mysql server and run new one.

 I could connect with new /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql client (old one was not
 working) and select data from moved databases.
 problem is that web pages are not working any more,
 after running by hand some script (which use to work) I'm getting:
 "
 Date::Parse is not available but requested by Class::Date
 DBI->connect(database=class;host=localhost) failed: Can't connect to local
 MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) at ./class
 line 27
 Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value at ./class line 156.
 "
 it looks to me that that it somehow is trying to connect to old not working
 mysql database.
 because now mysql.sock is in /tmp/=mysql.sock
 I have found somewhere that pearl script I can add directive:
 mysql_read_default_file
 $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$database"
 . ";mysql_read_default_file=$ENV{HOME}/.my.cnf",
 $user, $password);
 I did and it worked, but I do not know what to do in php scripts (I do not
 know php I'm admin) and it is daunting job to change manually all perl
 scripts.

 So any advice would be appreciated.

 Best regards
 Slawomir Orlowski
