Problems "starting up" RT2 - can't connect to MySQL

Yesterday I’ve sent a message about my problems conserning DBI.pm, after
some more checks, I managed to solve the problem (i dunno if it’s the
right way), by making a symlink.

DBI.pm is located in /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Apache/DBI.pm
when Apache complained that it doesn’t find it in @INC, so i made a
symlink in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i386-linux/Apache/DBI.pm which
solved the problem.

In httpd.conf I have:

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.8>
DocumentRoot /opt/rt2/WebRT/html
ServerName rt2.sportina.si
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /opt/rt2/bin/webmux.pl

SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler RT::Mason

I get a 500 server internal error if I point the browser to rt2.sportina.si.
In error log of apache I found this:

[Tue May 22 13:32:11 2001] [notice] Apache/1.3.14 (Unix)
(Red-Hat/Linux) DAV/1.0.1 PHP/4.0.1pl2 mod_perl/1.24 configured –

DBI->connect(dbname=rt2;host=localhost) failed: Can’t connect to local
MySQL server through socket ‘/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock’ (111) at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Handle.pm line 118

I tried perl -MCPAN -e’install DBD::mysql::Install’ didn’t help either.

And yes mysql is running, and yes it’s the correct version.

Can anyone advise what to do?

Thank you in advance,
Alesh

Have you checked to make sure that the mysql.socket file described exists
and is accessable. This gets asked pretty frequently. Is anyone out there
willing to step up and maintain the FAQ? If so, please write me privately.

    Thanks,

Jesse,

while hitting my head at the desk yes the permission on /var/lib/mysql
were not ok, otherwise mysql.sock is/was there (that was actually the
first thing i checked, after manually logging to mysql with rt_user
username.

Thank you again,
A.
