Title: Can't access Webmail
Post by: Jonathan Chan on July 05, 2001, 07:51:22 PM

I tried to access my webmail this moring and it gave me the following message:

Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in /home/httpd/horde-phplib/db_mysql.inc on line 73

Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in /home/httpd/horde-phplib/db_mysql.inc on line 73

Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in /home/httpd/horde-phplib/db_mysql.inc on line 73

Can someone tell me what these means? and how can I get the webmail working again.  Thanks in advance

Most likely this means that MySQL isn't running.  Try "service mysql start" and see if it works.

I am having the same problem and have tried restarting mysql, it just keeps displaying the error that it cannot connect to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Any help is appreciated.
