• Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (38) 38 answers

I'm a inexperienced webmaster for my Boy Scout troop. I have recently set up MAMP on my map and then tried to use MySQL PHP server for dynamic data. When testing locally, everything worked. When I uploaded everything to my web server (for which I only have FTP access) I get this message when I try to access the php page.

Fatal error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in 

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

More info:

• Mac Pro 1,1 running 10.7
• Dreamweaver CS6
• MySQL Server 5.3.3

Answer 1

I solved this problem. My error was that I didn't have MAMP set up to allow connections from the outside. Google it, there are many good resources out there to help you set it up. After I did that and made sure root access from any IP was enabled, I was good to go. Thanks for everyones help.
