Couldn't Connect To /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock: Connect: Permission Denied


I try to connect from a perl program to mysql and get:

>> Couldn't connect to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock: connect: Permission denied

1.) The /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock file EXIST!
2.) The mysql server is UP, I can connect from the terminal using "mysql" command (which in fact uses this socket!).
3.) /var/lib/mysql/ and everything in it has user=mysql and group=mysql
4.) mysql.sock has 777 permission

So I am compleatly helpless why perl can not connect!!!
The perl program is OK, I have transfered it to an other server and there it works.
The error must be somewhere at mysql but I cant find it

Permission Denied When Try To Connect
I'm running the mysqld which came with Slackware 10.0 and am trying to connect to it via mysql-administrator but get an error message saying this host is not allowed to connect to the server.

How would I go about fixing this? Is it in a config file somewhere, or a setting changed in the mysql server command line?

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
I have a problem connecting to sql and can't find anything on the net to solve the problem.

I have some sql databases running on a server. when I'm root on the server and I want to login to sql I do "mysql -ustudent -p -Dwordnet30 and it works fine. when I'm logged in with the user account on the server, i get this error message:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)

so with the same user name in mysql, i can log on when i'm root, but not when i'm the user. the grant table for the user looks like this: Code:

Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
I just installed mysql on linux. If I open a terminal, su to root,
then type "mysql", I am able to connect to the server and run my
queries.

If I exit out of su so that I am my own id (baisley) and type "mysql",
I get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)

Any idea why? mysql.sock has full permissions (read/write/execute), so
it should be accessable by user baisley. If I am baisley and I run
"mysql -u mysql" (as mysql is the user that the RPM set up), it will
connect.

What I would like to be able to do is run this without having to be
user mysql all the time. How do I go about setting that up, or is it
better to run all my queries/make tables as 1 user?

I've checked paths and connection settings and don't see any problems. My guess is now that the problem is coming from the opening and closing of the DB. my script, c_register.php uses a require_once('../mysql_connect.php') to open the connection to the database. But I also have a function definition in c_register.php that uses require_once('../mysql_connect.php') when called because it needs a connection to the DB. Here's a visual that might help:

Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
I've installed MySQL-4.0.14 under RedHat 8, using both rpm's and compiling
from source. When I try to run MySQL, I get the following error: Can't
connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'

After much searching on Google, and reading many newsgroup threads on this
error, as well as reading the manual, I'm still stumped. Most of the
advice I've found suggests that the path to mysql.sock is wrong, which
makes sense, but I don't have the file mysql.sock anywhere on my machine,
so obviously I can't correct the path.

when I tried:

Mysql Can't Connect Through Mysql.sock With The Right Dir
there's some topics related with socket connection problems, but it is not exactly my case: i'm using Mac os x 10.4.11 with apache 1.3.41 PHP 4.4.9 and MySql 5.1.31, When i was testing in a browser a database i moved mysql.sock to /var/mysql/mysql.sock from /tmp/mysql.sock, so when i used mysql command i moved from /var/ to /tmp/ . But suddenly mysql command doesnt work, it gives this connection error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (61)

Warning: Mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access Denied For User 'debscrof'@'localhost' (using Password: NO)
Have MySQL on a VPS running CPanel
MySQL v4.1.22-standard

Can access MySql fine through CPanel, phpMyAdmin etc all work fine, creating databases, deleting databases, adding users etc

However, when I try to use MySql from a website, it fails

I created a user "test1" (which then got the username "debscrof_test1" from CPanel), a password for the user "test2", and then added the user to a new database "testdb" with all priviliges

Then a simple script to connect to the database (as I am trying to locate the source of the errors), as per below:

<?php
$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "debscrof_test1";
$dbpass = "test2";
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql');
$dbname = 'debscrof_testdb';
mysql_select_db($dbname);
?>

Have tried with " and ' around the values, with 127.0.0.1 as the host... still with the same error message:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'debscrof'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/debscrof/public_html/testdb.php on line 6

Error connecting to mysql

...any suggestions why I cannot connect? (and why it says password: NO)!

How To Configure MySQL ODBC Driver To Connect To A Mysql Server On My Own Side Of The Router?
Using MS Access, I have attached to MySQL servers in other states
and other countries on the other side of my router. But when I use the
MySQL ODBC driver 3.51 to connect to a MySQL server on my own LAN,
the driver tells me it cannot make the connection. Here are the ODBC
driver connection parms:

Data Source Name: (free field - name my "my linux box" will do nicely)
Host/Server Name (or IP) - something like MSQLUserName@ServerName.net
has worked fine for me in the past. Now I'm trying 192.168.1.106
Database Name - whatever, mysqldb works fine, any valid db

User - root
Password - myrootpass

Port - 3306 has worked fine 4 me N the past. Dunno whether 2 use now
SQL Command On Connect - haven't ever put anything here

Perhaps there is some configuration in mysql user privilege for the
mysqluser "root" that would prevent him from logging from a remote PC
to the mysql server?

MySQL-error : Can't Connect To Local Mysql Server Through Socket
On a freshly installed Fedora C3 (incl. webserver apache php mysql) i get
the following problem when connecting to mysql through a browser
(phpMyAdmin)::

#2002 Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

On the website of MySQL this error is mentioned but I found no solution.

In /var/log/messages the following log occurs :
localhost kernel: audit(....): avc: denied {write}for pid=2458
exe=/usr/sbin/httpd name=mysql.sock dev=hda13 ...

What I have tried :

- mysql.sock is srwxrwxrwx, seems ok, but dont know what the s stands for
- the dir /var/lib/mysql was drwxr-xr-x and I changed it to drwxrwxrwx : no
effect
- tried different version of phpMyAdmin : same error
- installed my website and got the following error : No connection possible
with database (in the next version I will improve the error-messages)
- through commandline there is no problem in connecting to mysql (log in,
create databases, inserts, deletes, uploading dumps, making dumps, ....)
