Have now solved both problems. Have used a symlink for the socket file, but would be interested to know if it's possible to supply the path in the config.

I currently see two errors in the webui: i) Danger! PDO Database error: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) ii) Danger! You need to configure the database in config.php ! Type/home/db_name or user is missing ! I've moved the mariadb to a new location (not /var/lib/mysql) and this is reflected in the /etc/my.cnf The filesystem config file is: /etc/robinhood.d/scratch.conf Where should I specify the socket? Can it go within the ListManager, Mysql block? I haven't found any documentation on this. Any help appreciated with ii) also. thanks David ------------- David Simpson - Senior Systems Engineer ARCCA, Redwood Building, King Edward VII Avenue, Cardiff, CF10 3NB David Simpson - peiriannydd uwch systemau ARCCA, Adeilad Redwood, King Edward VII Avenue, Caerdydd, CF10 3NB simpso...@cardiff.ac.uk<mailto:simpso...@cardiff.ac.uk> +44 29208 74657
