Mike,

Yes, mysql:mysql plus just for the heck of it 'rwx' for all.

Mike,

Thank you very much for your quick response.
Unfortunately, mysql.sock is owned by mysql and on top of that I have
it opened for all (rwx). One more info, in messages log I see following
error : ... denied {connectto } for pid=7678 exe=/usr/bin/perl path=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t tcontext=root:system_r:unconfied_t tclass=
unix_stream_socket
My data directory and /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock is both owned by mysql. Firewall is completely
disabled (lokkit). I don't know what else maybe blocking this connection.

Arthur

is the entire mysql folder and database folders owned by 'mysql.mysql' ??

Mike


Arthur,

the Error 13 means Permission Denied. check the ownership of the sock file, is should be owned by the "mysql" user if owned by 'root', then this maybe causing your problems.

Subject: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)


OS RH Enterprise V4 (kernel 2.5.9-5.EL), Perl 5.8.5, DBI-1.46, DBD-MySQL-2.9004-3.1, MySQL 4.1.7 installed

I can access/update MySQL db via webmin (port 10000) and SQLyog (port 3306) without any problem.

When I try to connect to MySQL db via ;
my $hndl = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$database", $user, $password) or db_err("Unable to contect to $database", $DBI::errstr);

I get the following message : "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)"

Socket in question does exist in /var/lib/mysql and all directories involved is completely open (777). I've other servers up
and running without any problem (albeit different versions). Did I miss something? Any help/ideas is greatly appreciated!
