Greetings,
I'm a newbie with apache and PHP.
I was able to setup apache, php and mysql in RH Linux and have my
website running.
I was trying to test the BD connectivity capabilities of PHP but I keep
receiving this error message:
{
Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /var/www/html/testdb.php on line 20
Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /var/www/html/testdb.php on line
20
Could not connect to DB
}
I tried looking at the documentation in php.net, but I don't see what
could be the problem.
Here is the code (line 20 is the mysql_connect() command):
<?php
//build SELECT query
$query = "SELECT * FROM divers";
//Connect to MySQL
// *************This line is the problem! :^( ******************
if( !($database1 = mysql_connect( "localhost","test1","psswd" ) ) )
die( "Could not connect to DB" );
//Open database
if( !mysql_select_db( "divers", $database1 ) )
die( "Could not open divers DB" );
//Query DB
if( !($result = mysql_query( $query, $databse1 ) ) )
{
print("Could not execute query! <br />" );
die( mysql_error() );
}
?>
My DB is running fine, and I even tested it with that ID and it shows
fine as well.....
I'm using PHP 4.0.6 and mysql is enabled.
Am I missing any settings I might not know?
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thank you
Ellis
