Hello there,
I am drinking Asahi Super Dry right now.
This is the message I got
[root@localhost support-files]#
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
[root@localhost support-files]#
/etc/my.cnf is set as:
# The following options will be passed to all MySQL
clients
[client]
#password = password
port = 3306
socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
# Here follows entries for some specific programs
# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
port = 3306
socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Hi,
the server socket value can be set with
[mysqld]
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
in the /etc/my.cnf file.
Did you restart MySQL after changing the socket
value in this file ? Do
you have any MySQL error messages in your logs ? Is
the mysql server
process running ?

All,
Okay, got a problem with installing Snort which
has to
be easy to answer. I have looked on the web, at
Harper, and other sources and I still can not
figure
this one out. I even took the Sourcefire Snort
class
and followed the manual but this problem is still
there and I know it is easy but I can't find it.
As such, I have already drunk 2 big hits of beer
and
am planning on drinking more.
Okay, while installing MySQl I am getting the
following error message;
"can't connect to local MySQL server through
socket '
/tmp/mysql.sock' "
I am at my wits end as to why this occuring.
There is
what I have already done so you don't tell me
something I already know.
cp support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf
vi /etc/my.cnf
[client]
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
:wq
I have changed the socket value to various
settings
looking for the stupid location of that mysql.sock
but
I can not find it. I have tried this on the
following
OS's. (Should be meaningless but someone will
ask)
RHEL 4
FC 1-4 (Yeah I have done this 5 times, all on the
airplane)
I got this problem everytime when I was typing
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql The error message
would
only change value from (2), (20) to (111) as I
changed
the value of the sockets settinig.
Any idea? I have my beer ready. Hopefully this
will
be the last time I ever install Snort and can just
use
Soucefire IS....
