Re: [cobalt-developers] mysql_connect

[Simon Billis <simon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I suffered from this also.

To resolve I did the following:

I put in a symlink in /tmp for mysql.sock pointing to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock then it all worked fine.

I'm sure that this is not the correct way of doing it so if anyone else has a solution to the problem I would love to know, but it was a quick and dirty resolution.

Cheers

Simon
