I missed the rest of the thread here but could you have not also just
created a /etc/my.conf file to indicate the location of the default
mysql files?

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

phpMyAdmin 2.5.6 says:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password:
YESS)
also previously running flash can no longer access mysql.
I have solved the problem. I say what I have done for you Tom and
others with the same problem.
I have backed up the entire /var/mysql on the server with Panther.
I have ssh to the Tiger server. I have stopped mysqld. I have moved
the mysql folder to /etc/var in the tiger server.
I have done two comands I used to do on Panther for the right
permissions :
sudo chown -R mysql:admin /var/mysql
and
sudo chmod -R o- /var/mysql
I have restarted the mysql demon : sudo mysqld_safe &
And it works like before. PhpMyadmin and others...
