This is my first attemtpt to use a MySql database. When i attempt to connect MySql i issue the command
"mysqladmin ping" and recieve
"error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' exists!
".
I have attempted to start it using:
"safe_mysqld -user=mysql &"
and everything appears to go well.
It responds by saying:
"[1] 2958
[root@localhost root]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql040327 14:35:06 mysqld ended
[1]+ Done safe_mysqld -user=mysql
"
Even after i run this command i still get the error when trying to connect.
I am currently logged on as root. Any help would be apreciated.
