Re: MySQL missing mysql.socks
Hello,
Do you receive the error when trying to connect to MySQL or try and start MySQL? Please make sure that MySQL is started and listening when you attempt to connect to it. The mysql.sock file could have trouble being created during start up due to permissions of the directory it is being stored in. Have you attempted to modify the my.cnf file to save the socket file elsewhere? Under the [mysqld] you would want to look for socket='/path/to/mysql/sock/file' and modify that to something that is writable. I believe what ever user you set mysql to run under should be what that directory needs to be owned by.
