I'm trying to install mysql on suse 9.3 using apt.

It seems to install ok and chkconfig --add mysql
works.

But when I try mysql start (in etc/init.d) I get:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL
server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

var/lib/mysql is empty. What am I doing wrong ?


Thanks,
Nathan
