Dan is right. It doesn't
directly "affect" MySQL. It affects a lot of
things *using* MySQL. Which in turn affects the usage of MySQL.
Which, to take it to its logical end, means using MySQL in
Tiger Server has some issues. I hope everyone wasn't
too terribly confused by my original statement.
Seriously, though - he is right - the new
location is more secure, and I think that might be why you're still
experiencing problems... did you check the permissions on /var/mysql
and see if that is causing any issues? Also, that KBase article
doesn't tell you how to adjust your installation to use the
"old_passwords" - you should check to see if that is causing
any issues as well.
Well changing all this without letting one know (I read readmes
and if its it there I missed it) is not good. Further, I would have
hoped that ANYTHING that Apple did to move locations or change stuff
that would cause breakage for anyone migrating from Panther to Tiger
would be especially documented in a migration readme - nothing that I
can find.
I went to the support site and got the socket change but I can't
find anything about passwords and the "old" flash, php and
regular scripts access to mysql.
phpMyAdmin 2.5.6 says:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using
password: YESS)
also previously running flash can no longer access mysql.
All help is appreciated.

This doesn't affect `mysql`. It affects
things using the socket, like poorly coded PHP.
iWiring provides systems and networks
support for Mac OS X, unix, and
Open Source application technologies at
affordable rates.
