TOPIC: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib 14 years, 10 months ago #10471

Hi all,

simply installing JoomFish generates the subjected error.

directory owners and permissions are all ok.
trying to activate/disactivate core SEF changes nothing.
System - jfrouter disabled and System - ARTIO JoomSEF enabled

Any suggestions?
thanks in advance

It is strange, but I think it may not be directly related to the mentioned component install.
Please make sure your DB connection settings are valid. (try to change them from socket to TCP/IP to see if it will help). (also you may try DB restart)

Hi, db connection works good without joomfish installation. All configuration.php variables are correct. I think is a problem between JoomFish and SEF,
-trying modify/enable/disable different plugins such as System-SEF, System- Jfrouter or System-ARTIO joomSEF changes nothing.
-trying different configuration for htaccess, joomfish settings, system configuration but no solution found.
Any other suggestions from you?
thanks

RESOLVED

Try to explain the solution.
Before installing joomFish there was some query to db made with mysql_query functions.
Those query doesn't work anymore with the new component installation.
Using Joomla functions (setQuery and so on) instead resolves the issue, don't know why but now it works!

Ciao
Giorgia
