not connect to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. When I searched for mysql.sock,
it
is not on the system. How do I go about creating mysql.sock? Mikethe mysqld _service_ is not running. try to start that service. i don't exactly know how this is done w/ slackware but probably like this: % /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld start for starting mysqld at boot add a symlink into /etc/init.d/rc.d/rcX.d, that
points to the mysqld-startscript mentioned above % cd /etc/init.d/rc.d/rcX.d % ln -s ../init.d/mysqld SYYmysqld where X is the runlevel you want mysql to be started automatically and YY
is a
number that indicates between wich other startscripts in the current
runlevel-
configuration the mysqld should be started, e.g. S99mysqld... hth.
Slackware uses scripts in /etc/rc.d To start mysql run /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld start If its set to start at boot it will have execute permissions, if not use: chmod +x /etc/rc.mysqld to enable it. Also check if the databases exist in /var/lib/mysql/mysql if not run /usr/bin/mysql_install_db then ensure mysql has ownership of all the files in /var/lib/mysql chown -R mysql /var/lib/mysql chgrp -R mysql /var/lib/mysql Start up mysql and you should be good to go.
