Hi all, |
3 |
I moved my /var to a new disk and now amarok will nor work because it can't |
4 |
connect to mysql |
5 |
Can't connect to local MySQL server through |
6 |
socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) |
7 |
|
8 |
If I /etc/init.d/mysql stop |
9 |
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ] |
10 |
* WARNING: mysql has not yet been started. |
11 |
|
12 |
If I /etc/init.d/mysql start |
13 |
* ... |
14 |
* Starting mysql (/etc/mysql/my.cnf) |
15 |
* MySQL NOT started (0) |
16 |
|
17 |
If I just type mysql, I get the following error:- |
18 |
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through |
19 |
socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) |
20 |
|
21 |
So it looks as if I have really screwed up moving /var |
22 |
The /var/run/mysql directory is empty |
23 |
|
24 |
Can anybody help please. |
