Hello to all,

OK, here is my problem... When connecting to any of my mySQL databases (phpBB, personal made databases, highscore charts) I get the following error:

"Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"

My site is tigersan.com

This started happening last night my time. I noticed the problem after my server was down for a few minutes. I slept on it and this morning the error is the same. I searched through the Hostony Board and found the following suggestion:

"use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost." FROM http://forum.hostony.com/lofiversion/index.php?t1848.html

I made this update to my personal made databases... but I am unsure how to do this to the phpBulletin Board sections.

Asides from this, everything is peachy smile.gif

Thanks in advance for your input smile.gif

All is well with my site...
