Hello
Im having a problem getting mysql (version 4.1.14) to work. Im
installing from ports, which was updated today. Each time i try #>mysql
is get: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
mysql.sock isnt in /tmp/ which is a problem. The manual and searches
say that this means the server usually isnt running, so type mysqld
to start it. But i just get command not found. The only reference to
mysqld is in /usr/local/man/man1/mysql.1.gz
I was wondering if someone had any luck getting this port installed?
Im using freeBSD 5.3 by the way.
Thanks
Eoghan
