Re: Bug #2453 Updated: MySQL connection failed:Can`t connect to local

Okay, I upgraded my PHP to 3.0.12, my apache is 1.3.9, mySQL is 3.22.26a. My mySQL sock is being created at /usr/local/mysql-3.22.26a-pc-linux-gnu-i686/data/mysql.sock I try to redirect mysql_connect to the location of my sock: mysql_connect("localhost:/usr/local/mysql-3.22.26a-pc- linux-gnu-i686/data/mysql.sock"); but now I get the error: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-3.22.26a-pc-linux-gnu-i686/ data/mysql.sock' (111) in /usr/htdocs/corn.php3 on line 20 Unable to connect to database so redirecting mysql_connect to the new sock location, I still cannot connect to mysql I can connect to mysql through this socket with regular command line usage Any suggestions???
