Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
When trying to connect to a database or doing anything with mysql, I get
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I checked in /tmp and there is no mysql.sock.
I've confirmed that mysql is running
ps auxww |grep mysqld
root 40645 0.0 0.0 648 200 p5- I 12Apr05 0:00.04 /bin/sh ./mysqld_safe
mysql 40687 0.0 0.4 45756 16180 p5- S 12Apr05 19:58.11 /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local/mysql --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/var --user=mysql --pid-file=/usr/local/mysql/var/data-bus.net.pid --port=3306 --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock
root 95584 0.0 0.0 628 260 ?? S 4:59PM 0:00.00 sh -c (ps auxww |grep mysqld) 2>&1
root 95585 0.0 0.0 628 260 ?? S 4:59PM 0:00.00 sh -c (ps auxww |grep mysqld) 2>&1
root 95587 0.0 0.0 304 152 ?? R 4:59PM 0:00.00 grep mysqld
There is nothing in /var/log/messages.
The user that starts mysql does have write privelages on /tmp
Does anyone have any clue what is going on?
