HI im very new to this but i cant connect to my mySQL database can any one help? I have MySQL 4.1 that takes me to a comand line client. Then I put in my password and can create databases and tables. But when it try to php connect to it it says something like this
Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) What does this mean and how do I fix it. I know all you pros have probably answered this a billion times but can you help once more? Thanks so much!
how are you telling it your database name, username, password and host?
