[QUOTE="funkystrainz, post: 391046, member: 71720"] Yo, I really want to be able to connect to MySQL. This is the 3rd and final post I will make asking for help with the proper set up and documentation of a MySQL server. With the first installation, I hadn't set any locations for any kind of storage for files to be uploaded/saved to, the default files were just installed to different places assigned by my computer. There were also a few more failed attempts, which resulted in a symlink error, that I fixed and no longer have as an issue. Now, however, I've installed those files in new places, written in base/data dirs, updated that information in my other configuration files & have existing file storage created in the path that I've configured. There are a few ways I can almost get the server to start, but it always ends up in one of 3 errors: -The abundance of symlinks from previous installs; which I've solved -Failed to update pid file; which doesn't seem to work on its own, and can't seem to be located so I can place it in the directory i've configured along with my username.local err. -Most often recurring/Recently replaced with a lock.sock i need permissions for: unable to connect through tmp/sock. I'm not sure what else I have to do before I'm able to move on. I've just been able to access root@localhost with the temporarily assigned password. I've been reading a lot of posts related to bug fixes/packet structures/redirection issues/editing cms content that I'm unable to begin experimenting with because I'm having database trouble. I have info to store in .sql charts that I'm unable to execute. I can't create or install any new databases. And I can't connect to the MySQL server and begin to import valuable information into phpMyAdmin. I'm currently operating off of an XAMP server that is set up to my localhost, that I'd like to be able to connect to via MySQL. If anyone can reply with a fix, PM me and guide me through this stage, or teamviewer me & at least take a look at what my set up is like, where my files are/paths lead to, and offer MySQL/phpMyAdmin specific advice, It would be highly appreciated [/QUOTE]
