Gambas - Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket workaround
Previously I write about Gambas programming and my temporary solution for connecting to MySQL error.
Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2)
Well, it’s really temporary where the link file that I create previously gone missing whenever I restart my pc. I then need to run the command again and again. Until today I still can’t find the solution.
Here are my workaround for this problem.
It’s just a simple workaround where we just need to create a script and start it at bootup.
Write a simple script and put it in /etc/init.d/ directory.
Add up two line of below command in the script.
sudo mkdir /var/run/mysqld sudo ln -s /opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.sock /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Once completed, run this command at terminal.
sudo chmod +x MyScriptName sudo update-rc.d MyScriptName defaults
That's all. Happy programming
