You can modify your settings for socket (=mysql.sock) in file /etc/my.cnf

Hi again, got these error msg when trying to configur webgui, is this related to mysql.

will this stop webgui from working correctly if i proceed with the installation, i have stopped at this point for now.

I got mysql working again, thanks

where can i get these dependencies from, i have been looking everywhere, lol

thanks again, Regards Russell

Try installting perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1017-3.i386.rpm since the later version is compiled for perl 5.8.0 , SME6 has perl 5.6.1

(sorry, looks like my mistake to guide you to wrong version in my HowTO, will fix it at once)

As for perl-SOAP you could simply copy env from /usr/bin to /bin (env is provided by sh-utils) OR install perl-SOAP with --nodeps option
