A few queries about LAMP. My LAMP is not burning!

I hope this is the correct forum.
I have installed mysql as a slaptpkg. Although I have followed up everyone else's problems and tried the same solutions mine is still unable to connect.
I get the same ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect . . . . . etc that everyone else gets. Then I get:

Quote:

# mysqld_safe &
[1] 10511
root[tmp]# 110715 06:10:25 mysqld_safe Logging to '/var/lib/mysql/darkstar.err'.
110715 06:10:25 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
110715 06:10:26 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/lib/mysql/darkstar.pid ended

[1]+ Done mysqld_safe

Then the same ERROR 2002 . . . . .
I got all the groups and permissions in place. In /etc/my.cnf it points to
/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock
though I have tried /var/lib and /tmp

Another thing is: I installed Apache and also php. How can I test that these are up and running?
Give me oil in my LAMP!

Looks like mysqld is not starting actually. Check the logs to see why it happens.

You can create a php page containing

Code:

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

and visit it with your browser.

Thanks for that.
I still cannot get it all together.
For the record I found this link on another similar thread
http://connie.slackware.com/~mrgobli...kware-lamp.php
And it does provide easy to follow directions. So I have Apache and php up and running, Its just this 2002 error in Mysql that im battling with.

Like said above, check the system logs under /var/log and the mysql log (/var/lib/mysql/darkstar.err)

/var/lib/mysql/darkstar.err
looks like this

I did try <#mysql_upgrade>
but it gives an ERROR 2002 message once again.

I think my "server" is not installed or not started but there is no other package to install.
I have also tried mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
and mysqld_safe &
and mysqld_safe --user=root &

I also bought the book called Teach Yourself MYSQL in 10 minutes <ha ha>

Any good pointers welcome!

Hi,

Have a look at this post

Regards

Can I ask why you installed mysql from slaptpkg when Slackware comes with mysql by default? I'm wondering two things: 1) is the slaptpkg package up to snuff, and 2) by potentially installing a second mysql, did the config files get messed up?

And lastly, did you run mysql_install_db?

Thanks bathory, Im working on it.
Hangdog42, Im actually running the latest Salix which is suposedly like a light-weight Slackware. Mainly because Im not fully into bittorrent yet. Im quite impressed with Salix's similarity to Slackware and its compact size. I didnt find MySql on the system.
Hey, I like your website man!
