lolalou Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 First here is my info, at least as much of it that I think is applicable... your MySQL server version -- absolutely required! the raw MySQL statement in question [in a CODE block, and without any PHP variables] any errors that MySQL returns to the client [from mysql_error()] the table structure & column indexes of the relevant tables [via SHOW CREATE TABLE is preferred] the EXPLAIN output for your query, if applicable a clear and concise description of what you want this statement to achieve a description of what it's currently doing that's not to your liking a brief listing of the types of things you've attempted so far First, I am trying to install dolphin http://www.boonex.com/products/dolphin/ Version: MySQL 4.1.14 Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (46) My Problem with it: I don't understand why I am getting this message. I have correctly entered the database name, username, password, etc. I don't know what the problem is. I have gone back and double, triple, and quadruple checked my input and everything seems to be fine. I have other databases and php scripts running in other areas of my site (i.e. phpBB) and have never had any setup issues. Yahoo is my webhost... I am not sure if I have entered all you need to know, but I would love some help on this! Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenway Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 does anyone know where this refman is? I would really like to get a move on this, anyone? Please? Really? You can't search the web?
