I've got user as root and no password, as I haven't set 1 yet. Why am I getting this.? Anyone seen this before.?
With webmin, I get this displayed,

Hi Mark,
1) /sbin/service mysqld start -> this should start your mysql server properly
[root@localhost mysql]# /sbin/service mysqld start mysqld: unrecognized service
I have no problems getting it started, or accessing it via cli. Thought I made that point clear.
2) have you in your config.inc.php from phpmyadmin indicated the hostname or localhost? Set it to localhost and try to connect.
Yes, the uri is correct. $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://localhost/phpmyadmin/';
usually, when no socket is found, mysql is not running. Look in /var/lib/mysql - do you find a file called mysql.sock? If no, where does it reside now?
Yes, well, that's the weird thing, I showed where it is shown as running. Being able to access it also shows it's running.
btw. try ps -ef | grep mysql - this won't give you errors :-)
HTH Roger
Thanx for trying to help. Cheers.
