Pre-install mysql doesnt work!

I try to start pre-installed mysql with "mysql start" log shows "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (38)", then I create a subdirectory /var/mysql/ owned by root:wheel and grant 777 to it. still not working. Anyone knows how to fix it?

  • Custom mySQL  - updating path / problem with pre-installed mySQL

    I've got a custom mySQL installation setup and humming along on a 10.6.4 server. The problem is although I've updated the paths to search on usr/local/mysql/bin, when I try to access by using the shortcut mysql i get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' . To be clear, mySQL is working fine - it's just the shortcut that's not.
    This makes me think that the shell is looking first at the default [not enabled] apple mysql install. So something in my paths must be wiggy.
    I had this working perfectly on my 10.4 Xserve but the no one, I'm at a loss.
    Has anyone else run into this - any tips? I'm not going to be running the Apple install of mySQL.

    Actually, my problem is not with the socket location but with the data directory location. But I think is caused by the same path problem to data as yours was with socket. I have posted this question to the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix forum. If you could take a look, I would appreciate it.
    Thanks.

  • Flash player saying installed but doesnt work

    i have a toshiba laptop with internet explorer 6 and its an
    xp machine
    basically some websites that need flash redirect me to the
    adobe flash player site and i click install and it installs.
    then an animation plays when its successfully installed
    but then when i go back to the website that requires
    flash...flash doesnt work!
    im going crazzy now cos no-one knows what to do.
    any suggestions. any???? xx

    Well, first of all you might want to get IE7. Just go to
    filehippo.com. In any case, go to start>control
    panel>internet options. Go to the security tab and set the
    internet zone to default>apply. Then go to the privacy tab and
    click on sites. Make sure the website is allowed to set cookies.
    Then set the cookie slider to medium or medium-high. This internet
    options screen is different for IE6 and IE7, so your buttons may
    vary slightly from mine since I have IE7. Really, IE7 is better in
    my opinion and your favorites will carry over.

  • After install, JFM doesnt work (windows)

    i'm having a problem where i can install JFM just fine on my desktop and it works fine. Unfortunately i need to do a presentation of it and when i tried to install the JMF onto a laptop, after the install finishes, it doesnt get picked up. When I try to compile i get errors saying that my syntax is all wrong. Of course, it compiles with out a problem on my desktop. I've tried 2 different laptops and had the same problem both times.
    I'm using eclipse to compile my program on both my desktop and the laptop i'm using to present.

    hi!
    why you need to compile the entire code on laptop again?? you better put the jmf.jar into some directory under your project tree, and in eclipse point the jmf.jar. now you can build your own jar file and carry any where and give a demo. but in case you have to show the code as well, you check the path location of jmf.jar into your desktop and laptop both, if they are in different place this may happen.
    i have just assumed all situation, so this may not help you, but you may give it a try.

  • HP pre-installed w8 SW on windows 10

    I recently did a clean install of windows 10 on my 64 bit pavillion g6 which came pre installed with windows 8. So far its been running great. Couple of problems with drivers.  During the clean install I  formatted my recovery partition. I didnt think Id need it now I was on 10.  My problem now is with the hp software which came with my pc. SW such as cyberlink software such as  media suite etc.  I have used hp support assistant to access online resources for my pc and tried to download the software. SW such as Cyberlink youcam is working, but media suite is not. It downloads and installs, but all features are locked and have buy now under them. I want to know if I can somehow link my win 8 key or notebook to the  software  that used to work fully for me. Another problem with the  synaptics touchpad driver I reverted to is that it says (evaluation copy )  in settings. The HP pre instaled software doesnt seem to able to see Im a valid owner of it due to  windows 10. Im sure if I reverted back to 8 it would all work, but I would like to use it on 10. Is there any way to fix this ?Anyone else having similar problem ?

  • Install Lion on second computer from pre-installed version on new laptop

    Hi,
    I just purchsed a new Macbook Air with Lion already installed - it is a great machine!
    Now, I have an iMac on my desk that is 4 months old.  I'd really like to upgrade it to Lion.  My understanding is that we're allowed to install Lion on a second machine.  But, since my only copy came pre-installed on my Macbook, I don't know how to do this?
    I've seen many tutorials about making an installation DVD or USB key from the purchased version of Lion.  These dont' seem to apply to my pre-installed version.
    How can I install Lion on my second machine?

    ...My understanding is that we're allowed to install Lion on a second machine.  But, since my only copy came pre-installed on my Macbook, I don't know how to do this?
    You are allowed to install on multiple machines in your house when you purchase from the Mac App store.  Pre-installed copies of Lion do not qualify since the purchase is not listed in your Apple account.  Think of it like how you would buy the "family pack" of OSX in the past.  Just that now it costs $29 instead of $49.
    If you're looking at the instructions on how to make a bootable DVD, then they're telling you to look for a specific file.  (Hint, hint.)  Since these Lion preinstalled Macs have just come out, it's going to take a while before people figure out where the files(s) are, and so have time to update their instructions.  This is assuming it's even possible since Apple has always prevented the disks supplied with a machine to work with anything other than the same model.  Only "retail" versions of OSX would work on multiple models of Mac, and what you download from the Mac App Store is a "retail" version of OSX.  So it would not surprise me if the files on the pre-installed Lion only work on the same model Mac as well.  (IOW, the installer may only work on 2011 MBAs since that is what you have.)

  • How do I install an apple usb SuperDrive with my macbook that already has a superdrive but doesnt work?

         I bought a macbook off of a friend but the CD drive to the computer doesnt work and was broke awhile ago. I needed to install some software onto this computer so I bought the Apple USB SuperDrive thinking it would work, but later finding out that it is only compatible with macs that dont have a superdrive built in. An Apple support technician told me that it could be done through a process, but she couldn't help me with. So it would be greatly appreciated if someone can help me with this problem. Thank You!

    There is some useful information here about the process mentioned:
    http://www.hardturm.ch/luz/2011/10/how-to-make-the-macbook-air-superdrive-work-w ith-any-mac/
    Of course you need to be very careful with any use of Terminal.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
