mySQL not working?
 
i have apache and php up fine but my mySQL does not seem to be there. I have SUSE 9.3 and all of these have came with it.

when i type mysql I get:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

Have you even tried to start mysql? It has to be running before you type mysql to connect to it. And by default, when you install a distro with mysql, it doesn't usually start on first bootup as you'll need to create the default initial db.
