Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket

["Jon Godin" <jgodin () wiscomp com>]

Hello to All,
 
            I'm a newbie with Snort and MySQL. I go to access the acid
main page and I get "Can't connect to local MySQL sever.
I looked over everything but  I'm not sure what to look for. Can someone
point me in the right direction. My running Snort 2.0.4 and MySQL
4.0.17.
 
 
Thanks
Jon
