Hi, |

Without going into a long drawn out explanation, I was having a problem |
4 |
with something on my system and though that maybe it was because of the |
5 |
upgrade I did to MySQL. So, I decided I was going to unmerge MySQL and |
6 |
emerge it again. That may have been a dumb move, but what the heck, you |
7 |
learn by your mistakes right? |

Anyway, that seemed to be fine, but now, I'm getting an error message: |
10 |
|
11 |
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket |
12 |
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111) |
13 |
|
14 |
I googled for this and gather that it has something to do with the |
15 |
placement of the mysqld.sock file. |
16 |
|
17 |
The problem is the only post that I found that was specific to Gentoo |
18 |
was in German. Since I don't want to screw things up any more than they |
19 |
already are, I'm turning here for help. |

|
21 |
I do have the file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock |
22 |
|
23 |
How do I fix this? |
