I upgraded to 8.04 recently and during the upgrade process Ubuntu asked me if I wanted to change one of my mysql configuration files and I must have clicked yes which is why I am in a bit of a pickle now. I currently get the following when I try to log in:
And my /etc/mysql/my.cnf is as follows:Code:arthur@localhost:/etc/mysql$ mysql -u root -p Enter password: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
I see that the above has the following line:Code:# # The MySQL database server configuration file. # # You can copy this to one of: # - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options, # - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options. # # One can use all long options that the program supports. # Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with # --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use. # # For explanations see # http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html # This will be passed to all mysql clients # It has been reported that passwords should be enclosed with ticks/quotes # escpecially if they contain "#" chars... # Remember to edit /etc/mysql/debian.cnf when changing the socket location.

I looked in the directory and its empty.Code:socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
If I could find where the error file is I would post it here, but I don't have a clue where it would be inside the os
I found addition help at the mysql forums (something to do with linking ?!?! Never done linking before so I'm a bit lost)

I tryed as a last resort this but it didn't work:
http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,...127#msg-131127
this might be of interest:
and this:Code:arthur@localhost:/$ ls -l /var/run/ | grep mysqld drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql root 40 2008-05-22 23:08 mysqld
I'm not to sure if the owernership of thoses folders should be 'www-data' or 'mysql'Code:arthur@localhost:/etc$ ls -l | grep mysql drwxr-xr-x 3 www-data www-data 4096 2008-05-20 01:55 mysql
I did this as well:
http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,...6554#msg-16554
No joy
Then I did this
And thought WOW! what do I do now?Code:arthur@localhost:/var/lib/mysql$ sudo su root@localhost:/var/lib/mysql# mysqld InnoDB: The log sequence number in ibdata files does not match InnoDB: the log sequence number in the ib_logfiles! 080523 0:32:57 InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally!

An help would be gratefully appreciated
