i'm adding a membership logon, with a database, to my groups website and i'm having issues connecting to the mysql server.
when i log in, i get the following error:
Code:
Could not connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
but i know the connection works, because if i enter the wrong password/username combination i get the appropriate error which means the website is connecting to mysql no probs since logon info is in a database table.
so... i suspect the issue may be related to sub-directory:
/public/index.php <-- website home page (obviously)
/public/membership.php <-- membership page (and logon)
/public/membership/index.php <-- mysql error when this page loads, and attempts to open the database
