Re: PHP+MySQL+OpenBSD 3.4

Hello Nail, Php is looking for the sockets at /var/run/mysql/mysql.sock check if is exists - you may have compiled mysql with scoket located at other place. Also double check that mysql is running :-) Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: Neil Fryer To: 'php-install@lists.php.net' Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 2004 3:57 PM Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] PHP+MySQL+OpenBSD 3.4 Hi All, I'm pretty new to this and have spent the better part of last night, and today Googling, and looking on the various web sites, and I am getting nowhere with this. Here's what I'm running: OS: OpenBSD 3.4 PHP: 4.3.5 MySQL: 3.23.57 Apache: 1.3.28 I have got Apache up and running, this is the default Apache on OpenBSD, I built MySQL from the ports collection and added the server end as a pkg. PHP was configured with --with-apxs --with-mysql I know that PHP is working on Apache, and I also know that MySQL works from the command line. But i am trying to test the connectivity between PHP and MySQL using an app that I found on freshmeat, it's a little blog app, and well, here's the error that I keep getting. Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (62) in /htdocs/blog/diag.php on line 62 Couldnt connect to MySQL: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (62) If anyone can please point me somewhere of use, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Neil Fryer
