Hi all:
I need help here. I am trying to install mysql here. First, I was able to
install it, but only be able to run it as either root or mysql. I tried
installation several times. Somehow, it worked now. I was able to login
the script. However, after that, I could not run mysql as root or mysql.
It gave me the same error message as it could not connect to local MySQL
server through /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.
/etc/my.cnf might have a line giving the uri above. Mysql.sock normally
lives in /tmp change my.cnf
