Have you ever faced an error 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock', while trying to log in to MySQL as any user?
You can login to your MySQL via the following terminal command.
mysql -u root -p
or
mysql -u root -pPassword
Its recommended, not to use passwords in terminal command, due to privacy reasons.
Verify that, your MySQL is running. If not, start service by typing following command in your Linux terminal.
sudo service mysql start
or
/etc/init.d/mysql start
This error occurs due to multiple installations of MySQL, in the operating system.
To resolve the issue, run the following commands in your Linux terminal.
ps -A|grep mysql
Kill the process by using following command:
sudo pkill mysql
and then run command:
ps -A|grep mysqld
Also Kill this process by running the following command:
sudo pkill mysqld
Now you are fully set and can restart your MySQL server by running the following commands:
sudo service mysql restart
mysql -u root -p
