Put mysql.sock in /tmp and blivit.

[happycat]

Using Fedora 5, PHP 5.1.4, and SugarCRM 4.2.0:

I moved mysql.sock from /var/lib/mysql to /tmp. phpMyAdmin is connecting ok with MySQL, However, SugarCRM is not. I changed /etc/my.cfg to specify the correct path. However SugarCRM is apparently trying to use /var/lib/mysql according to the message on the Data Base Configuration page of "Install"

Note that SugarCRM was working ok prior to my change.

Any body have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Never mind.

I put a link into /var/lib/mysql to /tmp/mysql.sock.

ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

This worked.

However, in order to solve another problem I had tried to put a link in /tmp to the previously configured /var/lib/mysql.sock and it didn't work.
