Ruprecht, Make sure you have PHP pointing to the right location for the mysql.sock. "locate mysql.sock". Sometimes its in the /tmp dir. If it is in another location you can point to it specifically when you call mysql_connect (refer to php.net for the exact string), or just change it in your php.ini. -Mike -----Original Message----- From: Ruprecht Helms [mailto:rhelms@mayn.de] Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2003 4:10 PM To: php-install@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] Problem by running mysql-connection in php-script Hi, I get this errormessage on all mysql-connections within a phpscript.
