I think this is not an R issue, but one of MAMP. On my server's
sql service, I can connect using password, however, on my local
MAMP, I need the socket:

library(RMySQL)

MySQLcon <- dbConnect(MySQL., user='thisuser', password='thispassword',
dbname='desiredDB')
I have the following suggestions and questions for you:

Hi:
Because R does not have a direct interface to MySQL?
You need to load a communication package - the two most common ones are
RODBC and RMySQL. The former requires that you register your MySQL database
table(s) with ODBC before using the RODBC package on them, whereas the
latter works with spe
