Hi,

I' trying to use MySQL Gui 1.7.4 and keep getting the following error:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '' (111) <<

I'm using Redhat 7.2 and have tried it with the semi-static and the static versions of MySQLGui. Connecting to the server with mysql is no problem. I'm using MySQL Version 3.23.33.

Any thoughts?

Best regards,

Hi!

RedHat 7.2 ??

I heard only about 7.1 beta 2.

Anyway, all you have to do is follow instructions from README that comes with either of the above distro's.

Here is a relevant excerpt ::

When you start it for the first time, click on ``Options'' button, fill up all entries correctly and click on ``Save'' button. From then on, you will logon automatically to the running server on every mysqlgui startup.

Take care to put the right value in ``Ask for password'' button. Also, if you have problems with location of socket files on *nix, enter a full path of the socket file in the ``SQL command on the start-up''. This input field is used on Windoze if you wish to specify that named pipe option.
