[OpenSER-Users] Cant connect to local MySQL server through socket

Hi, I have installed OpenSER, openser-1.3.1-notls from: http://openser.org/pub/openser/1.3.1/src/ on Fedora Core 8. I have followed the steps given in: http://www.openser.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/install:openser-from-svn For the make command, I used: make install include_modules="mysql" I have completed all the steps successfully. However, I am not able to create database as said in step 7. To check that MySQL is working on my system, I used the command: /etc/init.d/mysqld start It says: Starting MySQL : [OK] To check openser is running: I used the command, /etc/init.d/openser start I get on command line: Starting openser: [OK] However, when i try to create database: /usr/local/sbin/openserdbctl create I get the error as: database engine 'mysql' loaded INFO: test server charset ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket' (2) ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket' (2) Usage: egrep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]... Try `egrep --help' for more information. /usr/local/lib/openser/openserctl/openserdbctl.mysql: line 112: [: =: unary operator expected INFO: creating database openser ... ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.socket' (2) ERROR: Creating core database and grant privileges failed! I checked the file mysql.socket in /var/lib/mysql, there is only an empty file with this name. As seen in forums, I saw that many people have this file in /tmp/ folder. However, I dont have this file there also! I am unable to create the database and therefore I cannot register the client using X-lite or SJPhone. Kindly help me out with this. I am badly stuck with this problem since 3 days and have been looking in forums a lot. I am not getting any clue of how to proceed further. Please help me out if anybody has any clue. I look forward to this mailing list as my only help. I need to proceed further as I have lot of things ot be done in this project and my deadline is very near. Looking forward to your co-operation. Thanks in advance. Megha
