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),
two day ago 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
/tmp/mysql.sock
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 far my problems my faults:
but now we have bug:
------------------------------------
bacause I have problem with mysql.socket which was in old version in
/var/lib/mysql now in /tmp
so
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-unix-socket-path=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
make;make install etc.
should produce mysql with socket in /var/lib/mysql dictionary instead of
/tmp
but once again I have got socket in /tmp/mysql.sock
So this directive is not working.
I have solved my problem by replacing in /etc/my.conf
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
with
socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
and now it is working.
But it does not change the fact that
directive --with-unix-socket-path=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock is not working.
