Hi all,

I'm a newbie to PHP and mySQL and I'm currently running PHP+mySQL on my
Linux 2.2.16 kernel. Every time I try to connect to mySQL from a php page, I
get this error message:

ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mys
ql.sock' (111)

FYI: mysqld was running, and I use the following function
in the php script to access mysql database
$db = mysql_connect("localhost","username","password");

What does that mean and how do I go about solving it?

Thanks in advance for your directions and have a great new year.

Best regards,
