Mark Greenhalgh	Friday 18 January 2008 3:38:36 am With the installation wizzard I get to the mysql details and cant log in. In the shell I do have to use 'mysql -p' to login. I am having to use Exponential version 3.10 due to current site. I am tying to set up a dev server and it is this that I am having problems with. Please help.

Mark Greenhalgh	Monday 21 January 2008 1:55:16 am The message that I am getting is cant find /tmp/mysql.sock This file is actually at /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. I have tried crating a sym link for the file and tried correcting the permissions on the sym link buy it still does not want to work. More info you you. On the cli I can not enter mysql, this returns an error I have to use mysql -p to get in. I dont know if that is what is causing the wizard to not log in. I am also using redhat 64bit server version 5. Once this test server is up and running we can look at moving to the latest version of ez but for now I am stuck using this old version.

This file is actually at /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.
I have tried crating a sym link for the file and tried correcting the permissions on the sym link buy it still does not want to work.

More info you you.
