Yesterday i updated mysql to 5.0.45 with custombuild and now i lost mysql.sock.
My.cnf has been edited to point to the correct location but the file is not on the system.
I tried locate mysql.sock and find / -name mysql.sock but nothing found.

Needless to say that mysql can't be started now :(
It's Debian 3.1 btw.
I hope someone can help me out since there are quite a few sites down now :(
Thanks in advance.
 
Hello,

PM me your server details and I'll find the problem.
 
It's working fine now "chown -R mysql:mysql /home/mysql" fixed the problem.
 
Awesome, thanks!
The sites couldn't connect but rebooting the server fixed that part.

One small question though.
I noticed that my forum is loading topics very slow now.
I checked phpmyadmin, and it says that mysql 5.0.45 is running but when i do ./build versions with custombuild it says that 5.0.32 is installed and that an update is available (5.0.45).
Unable to use ./build mysql to update since it shows the error again (using the fix Smtalk posted fixed that one again ;) ).
So, how do i check exactly what version is running and if needed, how to update?
 
Could it also be that it's looking for the wrong pid?
I noticed 2 pids in /usr/local/mysql/data and i think it has the wrong one (not sure).
