Unable To Connect To Database Server. Can't Connect To MySQL Server On 'localhost' (10055)
I am running a PHP application with mySQL . Some times it gives the following error.
I do not understrand why this error occures .

today i am using the application but it is not giving the error but error occures yested day .

Unable to connect to Database Server. Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10055).

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?

Warning: Mysql_query(): Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I'm trying to connect to my MySQL database (sitehosted by GoDaddy) using PHP. I am having these errors and don't understand what they mean

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:

Mac OS 10.3 -- Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
I just downloaded & installed MYSQL. It seemed to work and I can start
it and enter my password and change a directory but that is about all.
I have been ready and playing "hit & miss" all afternoon and it seems
to have something to do with the "mysql_install_db" not being
installed correctly -- I have tried multiple installs with multiple
downloaws.

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.

Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I just got mysql 5, from mysql 3 or 4 (can't remember it's been so long). I can't seem to get a connection. I searched and found http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/unix-post-installation.html#starting-server

Here is what it says to do, I don't know enough to be able to follow. Please advise:

If you have problems starting the server, here are some things to try:

* Check the error log to see why the server does not start.
ME: How? Where?
* Specify any special options needed by the storage engines you are using.
* Make sure that the server knows where to find the data directory.
ME: How?
* Make sure that the server can access the data directory. The ownership and permissions of the data directory and its contents must be set such that the server can read and modify them.

Unable To Connect To Mysql Server
I have downloaded and installed the latest stable versin of MySql. I have followed the install steps and everything went fine. I have then installed phpmyadmin. I modified the config file to add my password for the root user.

When I type the following address http://localhost/phpmyadmin to access the index page of phpmyadmin, I get this error message:

phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in config.inc.php and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

MySQL said: Documentation
#1251 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client

I double checked the password, it's the one I entered during the install process. The username is root. The host name is localhost.

Unable To Connect MySQL Server Across The Network
We have a MySQL server that was managed by another group in our company, the guy who used to manage that MySQL server has promptly left. Now this server has turned into me. I'm a Microsoft SQL guy, however, the manager doesn't think there is much difference between MSSQL and MYSQL.

Now I am in the hot seat to fix a problem that just occurred last week. We're suddenly not able to connect this MySQL server across the network. I checked the network connection, everything looked fine, I was able to telnet into the port 3306. First I thought someone changed the root password, but I was able to connect the server from the local server by using:

mysql -h localhost -u root -p

Other accounts have the same problem as well. If I try to connect this MySQL server from a workstation, I'll get the following error message:

ERROR 1045 (00000): Access denied for user: 'root@CS7LL11' (Using password: YES)

It will be geatly appreciated if someone can inform me what I need to do to fix this problem.

By the way, this MySQL server has the version # 3.32.56-nt

Unable To Connect To MySQL Server On Localhost (10061)
I'm trying to install invision pwr board for friends and family. I've got Apache2Triad on Windows, along with some other services like DC, Vent, Teamspeak (I'm a big gammer). I fill out the information to 'install' invision from the web address, click next and it says cannot connect to MySQL server on localhost (10061).

I've created the database but didn't add any tables or anything cuz I don't know what tables to create. Invision doesn't say which tables, just says type in the name of the database. Don't know if my password is wrong (using the one I created at install of apache) or if it's a port issue (installing on host machine) etc...

I've also tried to install a few other programs the same way; Bulletin Board, 3 different image hosting programs etc... all say the same thing, can't connect. All have there own databases with no tables (cuz programs doesn't say which tables to create). Code:

Mysql.sock File
I installed the base MySQL 4.0 with Suse Linux and I try and start it and I get anb issue with the fact that mysql.sock file does not exist in /etc..../mysql/mysql.sock

I created a file and made sure the owner is mysql. Can anyone share a template for what this file should look like?

Recreating The Mysql.sock File
I have a production system, that is running away with no problems.
However every so often the command line 'mysql' seems to be unable to
connect to the main server running. It complains it can't find the
file.

Now here is the rub; the file is there; it has the correct
permissions. Now before any smart-a**e says to restart MySQL server,
i can't. Its a production site and therefore i don't wish to restart
it.

So the question is, how does one recreate this file on a live system?
And second question is why does it lose the file in the first place?

Recreating The Mysql.sock File
looking through all the forums and newsgroups it would appear that
mysql.sock is definitely one for the Top10 of all time problems.
However, i have yet to see an answer that properly addresses it.

Problem With 'mysql.sock' File
I installed mysql 5.0 on redhat 9.0 from source (tar).
The whole procedure occured properly, i could do ./mysqld_safe.
But when i want to start the client: mysql, i get :error 2002: cannot
connect to mysql server through 'tmp/mysql.sock'.

I set /tmp with the sticky bit, because otherwise file 'mysql.sock' woukd be
deleted !?.
I also created 'my.cnp into /etc, but my problem is that there is no file
'mysql.sock'.

I recompiled it again (make, make install) but still no file 'mysql.sock'
anywhere.

Can't Connect To MySQL Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
I installed mysql on both of my mac machines running 10.3.9 and 10.4.1. Everything was fine when I installed mysql. Then I shut down both mysql and my computers. When I tried to start up mysql again, it said:

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

mysql mysqld
and
mysql mysqld_safe &
and
mysql -u root
and it always said "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"
I also tried
./bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
and it said "Permision denied"

I know some of you have answered a billioin questions like this before, but I've searched all over the internet and none of the solutions seems to work.

Unable To Connect To MySQL
I am using the following statement to connect to MySQL using PHP on Windows 2000.

$connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "azbycx") or die (mysql_error());

Unable To Connect To MySQL Databases
I've downloaded the MySQL 4.1 package for MacOS X.3 and things seem to be running, although I did have to manually run the mysql_install_db script as it didn't seem to run properly during install.

Anyhow the PrefPane keeps telling me that the database server is running but when I try to connect using XOOPS or even an SQL GUI like Cocoa MySQL I cannot connect.

I can login as root using the command line:

mysql -u root -p

and I can create databases and drop databases and tables etc but no external app can connect such as XOOPS or Cocoa MySQL using the same login details. Code:

Unable To Connect To Any Of The Specified MySQL Hosts

Unable To Connect To Mysql Via Perl
I am attempting to connect to my mysql using a perl script, and keep getting an error message that tells me the I am missing a sub routine.

I have installed DBI and DBD::mysql but still can not use

I am assuming that open_dbi is not installed, does anyone know of another, or better way to access mysql via perl.

Unable To Connect To Any Of The Specified MySQL Hosts
In my dev environment I'm running MySQL on Windows XP and it works fine. I can connect from other pc's on my lan no problem.

At the customer however we are hosting the DB on a Linux box. Clients are running XP. When we try to connect we get the error:
System.Exception: "Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts"

I am using the .Net connector 5.1.4.0
The MySQL DB on the Linux box is MySql 4
We're administering via phpMyAdmin.

We've tried changing firewall settings disabling etc to no avail. experimented with ports etc no help.

I am used to a MS Server 200x and MS SQL environment so this is all new to me.
Do I need to configure the DB or something to alow remote connections from within the LAN or something?

I didn't set up the DB so I am not sure what configurations were specified?

Unable To Connect To Mysql Remotely
I just setup my RedHat 9.0 server and have it preconfigured for MySQL, Apache and PHP.

I have my linksys router configured to forward any requests for port 3306 to my redhat linux IP. I thought it would be also important to mention that I am able to connect to my Apache webpage remotely.

I have also tried granting a connection for a user@%, but I still am having the same problem.

Unable To Connect To Mysql From The Command Line
i have a php application which successfully connects to mysql and interacts with the database.
I am using apache as my web server.
I would like to invoke my code from the command shell, using php.exe like so:

in script.php I am using mysql_connect to connect to the database.
I get the following error:
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Note that the same script is working perfectly when invoked via the web server...
what do I need to do in order to make my script work from the command line?

Connect From Unix Mysql Server To Ms Access Server
Im wondering is it possible to connect through my mysql db (running on fedora core 4) and access the ms access tables on the ms access server?

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 Connect File
I have a flash file which is a game. It keeps score. The add score and display score php files need to be directed to MYSQL database and the the MYSQL connect file needs to be connected to MYSQL. I can not for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong and I have been going at this all day.
I have enclosed in a zip file the three php files (add_scores, display_scores and the MYSQL connect file and also a text document with the MYSQL username/password/host info. If you need the open source game flash file i can email it to you.

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, ....)

What is the solution or what else can I try ?

Mysql Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket ...

Can't Connect To MySQL Server
I've installed MySQL 4.1.8-win on my win XP system as guided by the installer. Most of the setup was default. I'm running the server on the local machine. But everytime I try to connect to the server through the command prompt or the MySQL administrator program, I'm faced with the following error:

ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

I can't find anything wrong going. Previously I used MySQL 31.23.53, but never faced this sort of problem.

One thing can go wrong is that the port number being wrong. By default it's probably 3306. I'm not sure what else would fit in there.

Can't Connect To Mysql Server
I am setting up MySQL on a development box. I have set it up and can
connect from localhost, but I cannot connect from another computer on
the network. I have narrowed down the problem quite a bit, but can't
quite figure it out still.

I am getting MySQL Error Number 2003 "Can't connect to MySQL server on

also running a webserver from that computer and I am able to access
that just fine. I know that it is not a rights issue because if you
try to connect with a user that doesn't have rights, MySQL will respond
"Access denied for user: 'user@host' (Using password: YES)".

- MySQL is running on port 3306 (the one I'm trying to access it from)
