yoursurrogategod Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Hi all, downloaded the latest and greatest version of XAMPP for linux. The problem is that when I go to phpMyAdmin, this is the error that I get: MySQL said: #2002 - No such file or directory The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured). Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. I don't get why this is happening. Do I have something misconfigured on my system in the first place?

fenway Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Maybe -- do you say local socket only in your my.cnf file, but haven't / can't create it?

jazzman1 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 What is the status of your database? For Fedora / RHEL / CentOS Linux : su -c 'service --status-all | grep mysqld' or su -c '/etc/init.d/mysqld status' оr su -c 'service mysqld status' Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266461-phpmyadmin-does-not-want-to-connect-to-mysql-out-of-the-box/#findComment-1387486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
