running app. and getting error;
"Can't connect to local MySql server through socket

The path /var/lib/mysql is there but no /mysql.sock , what do I
have to do in MySql to get /mysql.sock ?
is the service, mysql, running?
as root: rcmysql status
if not: rcmysql start
It's not necessary to be root to check the status with "rcmysql
status" (thought either /usr/sbin must be in your PATH or you must give
the fully qualified path name, "/usr/sbin/rcmysql"). And, of course,
you _do_ need to be root to alter the status (i.e., to use the verbs
"start", "stop", "restart", "reload", "try-restart" or "force-reload").

Yes, the problem was mysql daemon wasn't running, but it is now.
I'am trying to set password in MySql without any luck, as follows;
shell> *|mysql -u root|*
mysql> *|SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('/|mary|/');|*
mysql> *|SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'/|linux|/' = PASSWORD('/|mary|/');
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is computer hostname.
PASSWORD is 'mary'|*
now if I type in:
*|mysql -u root
ERROR 1045 (28000) : Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password:
NO)
I'am following the online MySql Setup Password instructions.
