Jeff White - 2003-10-15

I have just downloaded and installed the code. When I attempt to run the index.php I get the following error:

"MySQL said:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (46)"

The only changes I have made are the following lines in the settings.php file:
      $MySqlHostname = "localhost";
      $MySqlUsername = "gulfits"
      $MySqlPassword = ""

I'm very new to php and so I'm clueless.

  Jeff,
  
  Is mysql running ?
  
  If so can you access the database you're using from the same host as the apache server runs on, as user gulfits without a password (on the commandline) ?

  Try hitting your local web server with the IP instead of the domain mask. Usually "127.0.0.1".
