[PHP3] Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib /mysql/mysql.sock' (111) From: Gudmundur Helgason (gummi <email protected>)
Date: 03/31/00

Howdy,

I am porting my site to a new host and it's almost ready to run, however I've
found a strange
problem with MySQL and PHP, well mostly MySQL.

When doing commands like "mysql -uuserid -ppassword" I always get
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'
(111) .

This same command works fine when I am logged in as root on the machine.
MySQL permissions seem to be in order but I may be missing something.

This of course makes sure PHP calls to MySQL don't work.

Any ideas?

Machine info:
Apache 1.3.12 and PHP 3.0.12 on Red Hat Linux 6.1 - mysql 3.22.27

Thanks in advance,
Gudmundur Helgason
