    Hi,

    I am trying to run MySQL on RedHat 9.0. I installed every package under SQL
    database & MySQL database. But so far I don't think MySQL is running. When
    trying to connect to the database using php I get the following error:
    "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
    '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)" After checking I found that the file
    doesn't exist.

    How do I start MySQL under RedHat?

    What else am I doing wrong?

    TIA

    Jerry Polyak
