Mysql socket error

Not sure if this is the right place but anyways...

i get this error when i try to use mysql_connect with php..

Quote:

[client 10.48.97.103] PHP Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) in /var/www/html/mysql.php on line 2

The ip is on a local network, and it is the Apache daemon used ip,... meaning that if i write http://10.48.97.103/ it will open my localhost

Make sure there aren't any problems with your apache or your network settings.

Did you Is your Server running ? ( Check using #ps -ef | grep mysql )

Well.. i didnt use a command to check it out..

I used the services manager of the Fedora Core 3.. and mysqld and apache are up and running..

I can see my mysql through the shell, but the php cant connect..

Ok, your mysqld is running, ok...
Just tell us if you are able to connect to mysqld outside php, using
#mysql -u <user> -password <passwd>
also
try
#mysqladmin -u <user> -password <passwd> ping
or
#mysqladmin -u <user> -password <passwd> status

make sure you have the php-mysql api installed and working
and also double check it is the correct version for use with your versions of MySQL and PHP
