Pfsense and verlihub

cozmo · Jan 5, 2007, 1:35 PM

Ive instaled pfsense, and then verlihub ( Id like to have a DC++ server on my router ). Verlihub requires mysql server instaled. Ive recived an error when I tryed to run mysql: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) I ve tryed to install another version, in fact Ive tryed all the versions of mysql server from freebsd ports… I looked around to internet for an answer, but nothing seems to work. And theres more.... mysql.sock does not exist in /etc, or anywhere in the system. Maybe there`s something about pfsense and mysql?
Please help ... Tnx

I would say the MySQL server is simply not running or refuses to accept connections, hence the error message
I did successfully run MySQL on FreeBSD so, no there's nothing special about MySQL+pfSense
And finaly I would say even if this is a catch all forum channel, it's not meant to be a MySQL support channel

Searching Google tells me that there are plenty of people which already have had the same issue.

BTW, http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/net-p2p/dcd/pkg-descr doesn't look like it requires MySQL to be installed as a dependency…
