A frequent error message received when using the mysql command line utility is:
Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/tmp/mysql.sock’ While this
error message can be frustrating, the solution is simple.
When connecting to a MySQL server located on the local system, the mysql client
connects thorugh a local file called a socket instead of connecting to the localhost
loopback address 127.0.0.1. For the mysql client, the default location of this socket
file is /tmp/mysql.sock. However, for a variety of reasons, many MySQL installations
place this socket file somewhere else like /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.
While it is possible to make this work by specifying the socket file directly in the
mysql client command
mysql –socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock …
it is painful to type this in every time. If you must do so this way (because you don’t
have permissions to the file in the solution below), you could create an alias in your
shell to make this work (like alias mysql=”mysql –socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock”
depending on your shell).
To make your life easier, you can make a simple change to the MySQL configuration
file /etc/my.cnf that will permanently set the socket file used by the mysql client. After
making a backup copy of /etc/my.cnf, open it in your favorite editor. The file is divided
into sections such as
[mysqld]
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/usr/local/mysql
If there is not currently a section called [client], add one at the bottom of the file and copy
the socket= line under the [mysqld] section such as:
[client]
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
If there is already a [client] section in the my.cnf file, add or edit the socket line as appropriate.
You won’t need to restart your server or any other processes. Subsequent uses of the mysql
client will use the proper socket file.
