I get the following error:

ERROR 2017 (HY000): Can't open named pipe to host: . pipe: mysql (2)

Can anyone help me resolve this?

I get it when trying
mysql -u root -p
or mysql -u root mysql
or mysql -h -localhost -u root -W -p

Changed my.ini to include

[client]
host = localhost

and

enable-named-pipe

Help appreciated
thx
