I'm in chapter 16 of the book _Agile Web Development with Rails_. I was able to get Apache/Passenger working, but now I'm stuck on MySQL. When I enter "mysql -u root", I get the message: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'
I created the /var/run/mysqld directory and the /var/run/mysqld/ mysqld.sock file. However, I was not able to grant ownership of this file to mysql, because the user mysql doesn't exist. What exactly do I need to do? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
