Hm...if I had to guess, I'd say that either MySQL isn't running, or
phpBB/PostNuke haven't been configured correctly.
Try "ps auxw | grep mysql" and make sure it's running. If not, the
start script should be /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql.sh (I think).
Try connecting to it using the mysql client and the MySQL user name and
password you've set up for your programs:
$ mysql -u [MySQL user name] -p [database name]
Password: *****
Finally, check the configuration for your programs and MySQL. Is phpBB
trying to connect via TCP/IP? If so, is MySQL set up to listen via
TCP/IP, or is it only on a file socket? What about basics like the user
name and password?
Hope that helps...let me know how it turns out.
