Ok, thanks smile That worked.
But it's silly that the root account isn't properly configured at install.

Sudo makes more sense to windows users than a root account does.

Another way to get root is like sudo -s i beleive check the man pages for it.

Ah i see the problem, even tho i have in php.ini

mysql.default_socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

phpinfo still says: MYSQL_SOCKET     /tmp/mysql.sock

And, the php.ini path as shown in phpinfo is correct :\


Fixed the problem by placing a symlink in /tmp pointing to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Your PHP Info says it's enabled... are you sure the service is started (and starting at startup)

Yes, i can connect to it from cmd line. Tho again:

[root@host ~]# ps ax | grep mysqld

15185 pts/0    R+     0:00 grep mysqld
[root@host ~]#

This is my my.cnf:

[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
# Default to using old password format for compatibility with mysql 3.x
# clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package).
old_passwords=1

[client]

[mysql.server]

[mysqld_safe]

Im running Apache/2.2.3 and PHP/5.1.6, but PHP wont connect to MySQL.

phpmyadmin says this: #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

But in php.ini the default mysql socket is set to /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. Also, i can connect to mysql via cmd line.

See:

[root@host php-5.1.6]# mysql -u root -p mysql
Enter password:
Reading table information for completion of table and column names
You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 3 to server version: 5.0.22

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

It was working, until i recompiled PHP to have GD enabled. :\ (GD works now, but MySQL doesnt, and it is enabled).

A quick Google search for CentOS and Bind tongue

downloaded and did this:

[root@vps100 ~]# rpm -i bind-9.2.4-7_EL3.i386.rpm
warning: bind-9.2.4-7_EL3.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 025e513b

I did not how ever uninstall any of where i installed it before (not sure how tbh). Hence its still running off the previous install (9.3 whereas the RPM is 9.2) So how do i fully remove the previous install?

[root@vps100 ~]# rndc status
rndc: connect failed: connection refused
[root@vps100 ~]# rndc start
rndc: connect failed: connection refused
'

This being my first unmanaged server i have to set up bind my self, hence i wgeted it and installed using default configuration

./configure
make
make install

But now when i go to start the server i receive this:

[root@vps100 bind-9.3.2]# rndc start
-bash: /usr/sbin/rndc: No such file or directory

Any one know what i should do?

Edit Pad Pro.

Edit: Thought some one might like a screenie of it: http://www.upit.be/uploads/images/epp7782.png

Thats my own syntax coloring scheme, the default has a white background, and i find when coding for several hours the white background starts to hurt my eyes tongue

Also i found when i tried it on linux, the linux port for it was not as good as the windows version. On linux i generally end up using nano tongue (You can turn syntax highlighting on for it tongue)

It looks pretty nice =o Any chance in you telling me how to open a connection to a server with that tool? tongue

With Putty? You need to have SSH access, most hosts dont allow it, tho some do.

If your familiar with windows, its the Unix version of DOS, only more powerful. on *nix, if you can do it with a GUI its probably 10x faster to do it via terminal (ssh). use google to learn more about it smile

Just wanted to show that it looks decent even in a purely text environment.

The above is taken from me using Putty to SSH into a friends server. (http://www.syi.cc) I found Links when thinking about installing Gentoo (if you download it acts as a live cd before you go to install it, and you can use some of its features off of the cd, (well most Terminal based ones). I never got around to installing gentoo tho because i realized it would take awhile for me to sit down and do it and i havnt had the time. I will eventually tho. (the only other linux distro i have used as a desktop is ubuntu). Anyway i was editing a file in SSH when it occured to me i should install links on the server incase i ever want to test something in a text based browser smile. Took me about 5 mins to install if that. (including wgetting the stuff over).

i suggest www.wampserver.com it uses apache. its just install and go. dont really have to change any settings unless you need to.

I reccomend at least installing it by hand at once tho. You become familiar with certain options and workings of the server should you ever need to do something for the server.

Heh I saw your comment on it, i agree with you tongue Altho Friends and I like to share code and I run a small file hosting site (http://www.upit.be),  so usually we just upload shit to there, but it will be even more convenient to have file sharing.

G-Talk is my favorite Instant Messenger, i havnt ever used its voice capabilities as my mic is broken.  But for everything else IMO is better than any other messengers. IMO the only way it could be better is if it supported file sending.

What's your base url set to in admin_options.php?

its set to it using localhost, Its not setting the cookie, e.g, i login and get redirected to index.php and not logged in (in other words i dont actually get logged in).

Edit: Problem fixed, I discovered it was my firewall's cookie setting was to high and for some reason it doesnt trust local host. :x I would think localhost should automaticaly be trusted higher than anywhere else.

Smartys wrote:

Cookies set fine for me...

Doesnt for me, And everything to do with the cookies is default and i cant find anything to do with localhost anyway. Im using Firefox 1.5 beta. :x doesnt make sense to me.

I cant seem to find it in the options anywhere and for some reason i cant set any cookies from http://localhost/ which is where I installed punbb to play around with. While its not that big a deal, i would think it would be default to accept cookies from localhost, as it should be trusted. Any one have any ideas? The cookie works fine if i access it via home.ruckus.biz or via ip directly, (home.ruckus.biz is simply an A Line i set up to direct to my IP.)

I agree that security is a huge issue, but you should also do a bit of research, just did a quick search on google and returned with this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhatPulse , a fairly trustable website.

I myself have been using it for awhile and it is perfectly safe.
