Suse linux – Resolving Error 2002: Can’t connect to local mysql server through socket ‘/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock’
After the installation of MySQL, it is only installed but it is not running. To make it run, the so called daemon for MySQL (mysqld) must be running. mysqld can be started manually by calling
# rcmysql start
with root privileges. You can check whether it is running by using
# rcmysql status
Another option is to start the daemon is during the boot.
Go to YaST -> System -> System Services (Runlevel). Wait a few seconds before YaST has examined all the Runlevels. Then select mysqld and press the enable button.
