problem with Mysql on SuSE 9.1
Hi!,
i am trying to setup and start mysql on suse 9.1, i enter yast, select the right packages install them then after that when i start the kernel and write any mysql command it saysa it can't find the mysql.sock file at /var/lib/mysql, i know i can delete the whole sock thing from the /etc/my.cnf, but i am afraid to do so, i don't know if it will make mysql work in a wrong way or not,
Plz Help!
Peace :)!

Can't find, or "cannot connet to"?
The latter usually just means the the MySQL server isn't running.
Take it easy,
Dan

What does it say in:
/var/lib/mysql/mysqld.log
(I think that's where it's located, anyway. I only have access to RedHat boxes at work, to refer to, and I wouldn''t be willing to assume anything about RedHat was at all standard.)

Well it says the same error,
cannot connect to localhost and then sumthing that has "/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock", i can't find the mysql.sock there, when i start mysqld_safe it starts but when i type any command it says the same error, and in the book i bought they said the configuration on windows only(do they think all of us use windows?),
Thx again!
Peace :D!
