MySQL problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I recently set up an email server on one of the machines on my network
and was attempting to set up a webmail client (it's the same machine
that the web server is on.).  I downloaded the Popper webmail client,
and it said that I would need MySQL installed.  I downloaded the binary
from www.mysql.com and followed the install instructions, but when I
tried to run mysql it gave me an error.  I tried running mysql on
another machine (which has RH9 complete install on it) and I got the
same error.  I've pasted the error below.  Any suggestions on how to fix
this?  Thanx!

This is the error:  ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)


I've checked that location on the server PC and there is no file at that
location.  It's not on the RH9 complete install PC either...
