Hi all, I moved my /var to a new disk and now amarok will nor work because it can't connect to mysql Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
If I /etc/init.d/mysql stop * Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ] * WARNING: mysql has not yet been started. If I /etc/init.d/mysql start * ... * Starting mysql (/etc/mysql/my.cnf) * MySQL NOT started (0) If I just type mysql, I get the following error:- ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) So it looks as if I have really screwed up moving /var The /var/run/mysql directory is empty Can anybody help please.
