I am trying to run mysql client on my terminal. I have installed the latest mysql gem.

sh-3.2# mysql -u root -p
Enter password: 
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
sh-3.2#

I am not able to get rid of the above error. I have created a mysql.sock file in /Users/HPV/expertiza/tmp/sockets. In the file I have written mysql.default_socket =/expertiza/tmp/sockets/mysql.sock.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

回答1:

You need to follow the directions to install and start the server.

The command varies depending on how you installed MySQL. Try this first:

sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start

If that fails:

cd /usr/local/mysql
sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe
(Enter your password, if necessary)
(Press Control-Z)

Also, if you got this error and installed mysql via Homebrew, I found that this works (though you need to change "5.6.12" to your own version):

/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.12/bin/mysql.server restart

I just created a file ~/restartMysql.sh in my home directory (with only the line above in it) so that I can just use this whenever MySQL is acting up

回答3:

Run the following on the command line :

$ mysql.server start

回答4:

this post helped did it for me, I'll rewrite the steps here (note: i'll be also writing the output of your commands.. just so that you know you're on track)

first stop the server if running:

[root@servert1 ~]# /etc/init.d/mysqld stop
Stopping MySQL: [ OK ]

run an sql dameon on a separate thread

[root@servert1 ~]# mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &    
[1] 13694    
[root@servert1 ~]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql

open a separate shell window and type

[root@servert1 ~]# mysql -u root

Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.

Your MySQL connection id is 1

Server version: 5.0.77 Source distribution



Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

start using mysql

mysql> use mysql; 

Reading table information for completion of table and column names

You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A



Database changed

update the user table manually with your new password (note: feel free to type mysql> show tables; just to get a perspective on where you are)

NOTE: from MySQL 5.7 passwords are in the authenication_string table, so the command is update user set authentication_string=password('testpass') where user='root';

mysql> update user set password=PASSWORD("testpass") where User='root';

Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.05 sec)

Rows matched: 3 Changed: 3 Warnings: 0

flush privileges (i'm not sure what this privileges is all about.. but it works)

mysql> flush privileges; 

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.04 sec)

quit

mysql> quit

Bye

stop the server

NOTE: on OS X or macOS, mysql.server is located at /usr/local/mysql/support-files/.

mysql.server stop

Shutting down MySQL
.130421 09:27:02 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /usr/local/var/mysql/mycomputername.local.pid ended
 SUCCESS! 
[2]-  Done                    mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables

kill the other shell window that has the dameon running (just to make sure)

now you are good to go! try it:

[root@servert1 ~]#  mysql -u root -p
Enter password:

done!

I hope this helps somebody. I was getting the same error, but seemingly for a much different reason than other people.

I have 2 CentOS machines.

I copied my.cnf to the new machine, not realizing that I had upgraded the old machine to MySQL 5.6, and the new machine had 5.5 installed. When I commented out the 5.6-only directives, MySQL started as expected. (and now I am running the upgrade so I can apply the massively useful innodb_buffer_pool_dump_at_shutdown and innodb_buffer_pool_load_at_startup directives)

I would suggest trying a bare minimum my.cnf. If MySQL starts up, then you've found the source of your problem.

回答6:

It looks like you need a MySQL server installed, there is install packages on mysql's site, or you can install through macports (I assume from the darwin11 line). I installed mine via ports, and the socket lives in /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/.
