Dears Friends,
I would like know as do for configure my PHP to access the MYSQL. The warning is:

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111)

Thanks

Try setting up your mysql server to use unix sockets, or specify the hostname in your call to mysql_connect

My problem persist.
My document is :

<?
$usr = "";
$pass = "";
$datn = "test";
$ip = "localhost";

$conn = mysql_connect($ip,$usr,$pass);
$database = mysql_select_db($datn,$conn);
?>

Thanks

have you tried a:
locate mysql.sock
at the commandline of your server? perhaps mysql.sock isn't in /tmp, it isn't on my server (it is in /var/lib/mysql on mine)

Dear friend, sorry, but where can I configure this option??

Thanks

I coincidentally ran across the same problem today. All you need to do is edit your "my.cnf" file to put the socket in /tmp/mysql.sock instead of the default location.

If you dont have a "my.cnf" file in your /etc directory, there should be some default files in the /usr/sbin dir.... Hope this helps.

Errr... dumb question... do you have mysql database installed on your machine? If so, is it actually running?
