      phpinfo() says:

      MySQL Support         enabled

      MYSQL_SOCKET     /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

but in fact the file /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock doesn't exists. So I understand that the first step is to check the configuration of MySQL, is it? "Dan Brunner" <daniel.brunner@duni.com> escribió en el mensaje news:97065B0E-FE8E-11D7-9043-00306589E6DA@duni.com...

I'm starting to use MySQL, well, trying to, and I get the next message: Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) The manual says that mysql_connect() can be called without arguments. That's what I'm doing. What's wrong? Thanks, Gabriel. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
