Selecting data from mysql using qt?

[doforumda]

the file my.cnf is in etc/mysql folder

[Dii]

doforumda: use gedit

sudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf

at least most of the ubuntu machines have the config file there.

[doforumda]

this is the socket line in my.cnf

@
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
@

[Dii]

ok then the wrong socket guess was wrong... but let's make it sure:

sudo ls -l /var/run/mysqld/*

[doforumda]

after running this sudo ls -l /var/run/mysqld/* there is nothing inside run directory

[Dii]

uhmmmmmmm that's more than strange, the socket file should be there somewhere, let's find it:

find /var -name mysqld.sock

if no result:

find /opt -name mysqld.sock

[doforumda]

both of them didnt return any resutl

@
root@zafar-laptop:/# find /var -name mysqld.sock
root@zafar-laptop:/# find /opt -name mysqld.sock
root@zafar-laptop:/#
@

I have bitnami lampp stack installed and when I start it then the socket file is created in /opt/lamppstack/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock. I think doforumda shoudl have similar directory and we need to check the permissions for that directory.

[Dii]

Usually that means, that the mysql daemon is not running... but the the command line should not work as well... ;(

It doesn't hurt to try to start the daemon:

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start

... and do the search for the socket file as above.

[Dii]

gosh, do the find with sudo:

sudo find /opt -name mysqld.sock
sudo find /var -name mysqld.sock

damn, I always forget that with ubuntu

[Dii]

lyuts: yes, if he have the socket file at the same place, we need to symlink it to the /var/... location and happy end :) I hope so.

[doforumda]

tyut: yes i have one file with the name of mysql.sock in /opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.sock

[doforumda]

the permissions on mysql.sock it read write exe for all types of users

[Dii]

Great, don't give up, we are close :D

ls -l /opt/lampp/var/mysql/*

maybe you have another mysql config file somewhere:

ls -l /opt/lampp/etc/my.cnf
or
ls -l /opt/lampp/etc/mysql/my.cnf
?

[Dii]

gosh... all with sudo please

[doforumda]

i got this output from this command sudo ls -l /opt/lampp/var/mysql/*

the output is too long so i am posting it in pieces
