Title: phpMyAdmin problem after upgrade to mysql 4.0
Post by: safeldt on April 19, 2004, 05:23:30 PM

Hi,

After upgrading to mysql 4.0 I can't connect with phpmyadmin.

#2002 - Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

I followed John Haj "How to upgrade MySQL to 4.0.x for SME Server"

It is still possible to connect with Navicat from premiumsoft.

Then don't use phpmyadmin.
Use a real dbtool re this howto: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/smeserver/contribs/aloveless/howtos/dbTools_on_SME/howto.html
Just a suggestion.
I have tried both, and I like dbtools a lot better !

Thanks, I try that.

But do you know what the problem is with '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' ?

I see the same error if I try to launch mysql on the console.
