Hi,
Need help. Installed Mysql in Redhat 9.0 workstation.
I have installed MYSQL,Appache,PHP.
PHP,Appache installation is fine and intergration is also working fine.
I have installed and configured MYSQL
Problem : I cannot log into MYSQL database either from root or user.(local host)

The error is 2002: unable to connect to local host thru socket "\var\lib\mysoc"
but cannot locate the mysql.sock in /tmp
And the service is sqldb is also not working and cannot locate in services

Check your /etc/my.cnf for socket file location

I have experienced this error most often when the MySQL server failed to
start. There needs to be a mysqld process running, even if you are
connecting to databases locally.

Start on this page for troubleshooting tips:

FWIW, I usually have to do some number of MySQL server restarts when I
install it on Linux.
