Hi, I have tried to install DBD::mysql under Linux manually and also using cpan, but the "make test" command gives the error saying that it can't connect to the server using the socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.
I know that MySQL is not using that socket but /tmp/mysql.sock, but I don't know how to let DBD::mysql know that. I have set the --testuser, --testpassword, --testdb, and even the port and the host, but it still tries to use /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock socket. Now I have changed the socket in my.cnf and I was able to install DBD::mysql, but isn't possible to specify another socket than that default one chosen by DBD::mysql? Thank you.
