Im getting problems connecting also. None of my pages will connect and there was no problem earlier today.

This is the error Im receiving.

Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /www/u/username/htdocs/filename.php on line 119

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /www/u/username/htdocs/filename.php on line 119

I've got some up - some down all on the same database

appears to be several damaged tables - I was working on that part of it while it died a ways back, suspect that's when it damaged it. Now most forums work, one is dead

To all mysql users.

Don't rely on "localhost" for your server.

I always use MyServer@powweb.com to connect to mysql.

I spent hours cross-posting with an admin regarding this same problem a while back.
The Admin said everything was working fine, but there was no still no way to connect thru "localhost".
Finally after 2 reboots of mysql the problem disapeared.

I the meantime 50% of all connections were not made.

I hope this helps a little bit.

I don't think this is a problem as we are using Unix/mysql.

But you never know.
