I just installed mysql on linux. If I open a terminal, su to root,
then type "mysql", I am able to connect to the server and run my
queries.
If I exit out of su so that I am my own id (baisley) and type "mysql",
I get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
Any idea why? mysql.sock has full permissions (read/write/execute), so
it should be accessable by user baisley. If I am baisley and I run
"mysql -u mysql" (as mysql is the user that the RPM set up), it will
connect.
What I would like to be able to do is run this without having to be
user mysql all the time. How do I go about setting that up, or is it
better to run all my queries/make tables as 1 user?
Thanks.

Actually, when I am baisley and I try to "mysql -u mysql", it DOESN'T
work. I get the same message. Not sure how to fix this. br***********@g mail.com (Brett B) wrote in message news:<2c******* *************** ****@posting.go ogle.com>...

It's really strange. I downloaded the latest 4.0.16 RPM from mysql.com
and installed it to my Fedora system, and did *not* do anything else
(Actually I am completely new to mysql).
I wrote a test php script to test mysql (ftp_connect('localhost',
'root');), but got the following error:
Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/custcare/dbconn.inc on line 2

Dear All,
I just downloaded & installed MYSQL. It seemed to work and I can start
it and enter my password and change a directory but that is about all.
I have been ready and playing "hit & miss" all afternoon and it seems
to have something to do with the "mysql_install_db" not being
installed correctly -- I have tried multiple installs with multiple
downloaws.

Now let me describe what I have done and my purpose:
Originally, I want to user ports to install phpBB
But I found that phpBB doesn't support mysql 5.x (but the ports
installed mySQL 5.0.0 alpha)
so I deinstall mysql5-server and mysql5-client
And then I install mysql41-server and mysql41-client on FreeBSD 5.3 by
ports
but now , mysql is not workable
