    • MySQL Error Message

    Posted by caleb posts: 5 United States

    I'm getting an error message saying that Tiki:

    Cant connect to local MySQL server through
    socket 'var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

    I have MySQL 4.0 installed and ran a search for the mysql.sock file and it isn't present anywhere on my machine. Where could i find this file and once I do, where should it go?

    Sorry if this is a newbie question but I'm relatively new to this kind of stuff. Thanks in advance!

    I'm running redhat 9.

    Alright, I got the other problem resolved, just had to reconfigure MySQL. I also had the tiki-install.php file in the htdocs directory instead of just in the html directory.

    This is the new problem at hand:

    Warning: Access denied for user: 'admin@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /var/www/html/tiki/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 321

    Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user: 'admin@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /var/www/html/tiki/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 321

    I set up the database as "tiki" but when I try to continue the installation, I get that message.

    Any Ideas? Once again, Thanks in advance.

    Well I never read that message but maybe it comes from the DB user you entered. What was it? Here it's "chealer".

    I have the username set up as "admin", with "admin" as the pw.

    I'm going to delete the database, and the user account, then try and set it up again.
