Hi guys, when i try and access many mysql services including logging into DirectAdmin i get an MySQL error. When i try and start mysql i also get this error:

[root@mercury root]# mysql
ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query
[root@mercury root]# mysql
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)

Any help would be greatly welcomed.

I am getting the:
#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

YOu got to edit my.cnf file with the correct location of mysql.sock file location. That may be the reason for error.
