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!!!
