Thanks again Beltran. Is there any way for me to edit something in a script that would start mysql automatically whenever i start my mac?

Topic: MAMPStack / Error Logging in to mysql

Thank you Beltran, that was the problem but now I’m getting a different error:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ’snag49ers’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)

Not sure why I’m getting this. I’m using this command to login:

$ ./mysql -u wj1031 -p

Do I need to specify a host? I didn’t think I needed to since I’m using my local machine. Thanks again.

Topic: MAMPStack / Error Logging in to mysql

Whenever I try to login to mysql on my macbook I get this error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/Applications/mampstack-1.2-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2)

I was looking online and it was saying this error occurs because it’s looking for mysql.sock in the wrong location. I was going to edit the mysql.cnf file and change the location in the file to the correct location for mysql.sock but when I search for mysql.sock it isn’t showing up anywhere on my machine. I am new to this so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.
