Ubuntu Servers :: Can't Connect To Mysql Server From LAN
Nov 19, 2010
I've looked everywhere for this (simple) problem, and I can't get this working. I have a mysql server on my LAN which is accessible from within the server.I want to access the mysql server from another computer on the LAN, but it never works.
I think this goes here, but I'm not sure. I decided that XAMPP had been troublesome enough. MySQL never worked. So I decided to instal the LAMP stack offered by YaST. I went about installing it thinking that it would all work. But it seems that I was wrong. So I try to start mysql, and here's what I get:
Code: the-matrix:~ # mysql start ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) or Code: the-matrix:~ # rcmysql start Starting service MySQL warning: /var/mysql/mysql.sock didn't appear within 30 seconds chmod: cannot access `/var/run/mysql/mysqld.pid': No such file or directory
i am using liferay5.2(mysql included in the download pack) on fedora. while liferay is working fine but i cannot connect to mysql.i am getting the error
[ [root@localhost ~]# ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp [root@localhost ~]# /etc/init.d/mysqld start Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.
[code]....
i didnt find the mysql.sock file in the location /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. i cannot find the portal-ext.properties file also to make intial settings.
After the upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, all was well. But after the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, I lost the MySQL server. Now, I recall during the upgrade, I was asked if I wanted to keep the existing my.cnf file or replace it with a newer one. I did as suggested and kept the original as I had edited it before. The same question was asked with a couple other config files. I kept the original in each case. After the first step, I checked the server was running and the websites were up, all was well. After the update to 9.10, when I checked the server, I get the following error:
Code: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists! Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting this resolved?
how to upgrade from mysql5.1 to mysql5.5 version. Pls guide me in briefly.I did upgrade with the help of this url
http://www.ovaistariq.net/490/a-step...-to-mysql-5-5/ but i got error like this error:2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) when trying to connect FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed
In /etc/my.cnf , i didnt get like this. Is this is the error user = mysql; socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock; port = 3306; basedir = /usr/local/mysql; datadir = /usr/local/mysql/data; tmpdir = /tmp; log_error = /var/log/mysql/error.log
I'm the lead Dev of GnackTrack and we're having issues with running MySQL on the LiveDVD.Once installed everything works fine, mysql can be connected to but when using the liveDVD we get the following error:
Code:
root@root:~# mysql ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) Contents of /etc/mysql/my.cf point to /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock but because this is a liveDVD the actual file is located in: /rofs/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
I'm having problems connecting to the mysql database on my system. I first noticed this when I was trying to set up the program anymeal. I subsequently tried using MySQL Administrator (mysql-admin), but had no luck. It gives my the following feedback:
Code:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
Click the 'Ping' button to see if there is a networking problem. I press the ping button, and it seems to connect.
I've been attempting to set up a LAMP for local web development, which meant installing mysql-server. But now have a problem when trying to run mysql, I get:-
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
When trying to downgrade mysql-server I saw that there are dependency problems between the various modules (but can't recall which). But whichever route I truied the results are always the same.
Thought about trying XAMPP but I note that even has it's problems, is there any way I can get a lamp set up on FC14, or must I give it up as a bad job.
Howver, just been trying to again to fix the problems with downgrading mysql and get:-
I have installed Mysql in Ubuntu 9, for the use of roundcube database.After installing iam getting the error like this
* Stopping MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ] * Starting MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ] * Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables.
So because of this in the roundcube configuration its giving the error message that MYSQL is not installed. So Kindly give me a idea how to solve this.

A few days ago, I ordered a ubuntu server (on ovh.com). Everything was going well until I installed mysql: After the install, I tried to connect throught Navicat MySQL using SSH, but it says that the user or password it's not correct, obviusly this is not true. I've been reading and I readed that I have to open the 22 port to use MySQL in the firewall, but I don't know how to do it.
I am running a server with Ubuntu 10.04 and mysql v.5.4.41-3ubuntu12.1.I am unable to connect to my mysql server remotely, (error 111). I have added the port 3306 to iptables. It is able to connect to the loopback address (127.0.0.1) but not through its external address.
I installed Fedora 12 with package standard of the MYSQL, configured this the same twirling in such a way localhost as in one it schemes with windows VISTA, to put I have others 4 you scheme with windows XP that I do not obtain to have access in the MYSQL. What I have to make pra these you scheme with XP to have access?
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2). I've had this problem to the point where I thought I messed up my actual configuration so bad that I reinstalled Ubuntu to get rid of all the MySQL configuration; I ran MySQL through Windows with a breeze, but I'm getting some errors like that after restarting my computer just a few minutes ago and I have not changed anything in my SQL settings. I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit and running MySQL 5.1. the actual error that I get from Navicat and from the website is at [URL]... Update: 20110402. Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. Just got that when I tried to log in to phpmyadmin.
I wrote a code in C to connect to MySQL by using mysql_real_connect function but I recieved error "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)" (by using mysql_error function).
I also did the following things: in mysql I typed 'SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%SOCKET%'', it returned /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock I typed 'mysql_config --socket' in shell, it returned /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock I modified /etc/my.cnf file
I've tried /etc/init.d/mysql start, and it actually starts, or at least, it doesn't error out. But when I do pgrep mysql I get nothing, and when I try to login with mysql -p as root, I get
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
None of my other logins work, either, but since pgrep mysql didn't work, it's clear that MySQL just isn't running. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling mysql-server via apt-get, but I get the same thing. The logs in /var/log/syslog show this:
Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: #007/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed Apr 11 14:31:26 /etc/init.d/mysql[9774]: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server
I was trying to install MySQLbd (a module for python to connect and access MySQL) I followed these steps for installation[URL].. but while I am getting some installation errors. When I try to run $ python set.py build I am getting the following errors (I removed few errors as I can post more than 10000 characters here)
I would like to connect to a separate mysql server, yet I can't find any documentation on how to do this.How would one achieve this? I am running qmail on centos4.
I cannot connect to mysql on my server.It is running but I cannot remember whether it has a password or not.I get this: [root myscripts]# mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)[root myscripts]#.I have tried running mysql -u root -h localhost -p and entering a blank password but no luck.
I've just decided to jump in and learn some PHP and MySQL stuff, by creating a dbase on our intranet server (CentOS5.4/Apache/PHP).
Everything seemed to go great with the MySQL dbase creation - I can even successfully connect to the dbase via ODBC on a Windows box (but there's no data in there yet).
My next step was to create a PHP form to gather info from intranet users, which would be submitted to and stored in the MySQL dbase.
I have tried following various basic tutorials online but I have started to struggle. If I run even the most simple of PHP connection on the server, I just get a blank page (i.e.: no 'connected' or 'failure to connect' message).
For instance:
<?php mysql_connect("localhost", "admin", "1admin") or die(mysql_error()); echo "Connected to MySQL<br />"; ?>
If I run this, I get a blank page.
How can I start to troubleshoot this? As mentioned I felt quite confident that MySQL was working due to success with ODBC, and the server already serves html/PHP services/pages as it's an existing intranet server.
My problem is that for some reason I can't connect to my MySQL on my server.I know it's not the script, other than the information that I'm using to connect.The MySQL server is set to "localhost" so I set the host in my php script to "localhost".I check for the username and they say I should try "root" so I set the username to "root".Then I put in my root password.When I go to where my php script actually starts, it gives me the error saying that I cannot connect. I know the rest of the script works and the error refers to the info I'm using to go in
I've just made my old, dusty computer into an Ubuntu Server. So far, i have installed a well functioned LAMP server, to host my Website. I have also installed a FTP-Server (proftpd) and i was wondering if i could manage my FTP accounts in MySQL so i could make an account creation page for it? If yes, how?
