MySQL Connection Failure

[Thomas Tinsley]

Hi my name is Tom and I am installing FreeRadius for the first time.

Specifications:
	OS:  Fedora Core 4
	     Linux Kernel 2.6.11smp
Freeradius version : 1.0.2

MySQL version : 4.1.11

DEBUG Info:

Mon Jul 11 14:05:01 2005 : Error: rlm_sql (sql): Failed to connect DB handle
#4
Mon Jul 11 14:05:01 2005 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to
use! skipped 5, tried to connect 1

server for #4
Mon Jul 11 14:05:10 2005 : Error: rlm_sql_mysql: Couldn't connect socket to
MySQL server root at localhost:radius
Mon Jul 11 14:05:10 2005 : Error: rlm_sql_mysql: Mysql error 'Can't connect
to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)'

Question?

	Does anyone have a method to trace the connection attempt?  MySQL is
not kicking out any log info that would help.  I have confirmed the MySQL
server is running, and can connect to databases using PHP & PERL.
MyADMINPHP and Dialup-Admin are installed, configured, and tested
successfully for the MySQL server.  I just need to get Radius to do the
same.  Radius.conf & sql.conf are modified accordingly.

	Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.
