With that it works for me. I will say that the original instructions say to "sudo chmod 755 tmp" It will work, but more secure and just as functional is "sudo chmod 750 tmp" Alexander, that was very helpful and important extra information, thanks.

I will say that the original instructions say to “sudo chmod 755 tmp”

It will work, but more secure and just as functional is “sudo chmod 750 tmp”

so my /etc/my.cnf looks like this:

[mysqld]

I am hoping that I can get a little help in the terminal and in finding where my.cnf is. I am brand new to programing and am still motivated to learn PHP and MySQL. Everything I am finding about fixing this in Leopard on my G4 is confusing. Any help? my email is macursus(at)gmail(dot com) thanks, evan I am so lost.

I'm so new to MySQL and your simple explanation and solution are perfect. Not too much, not too little. Seems others get too wordy with their experience and solutions, which generally causes confusion, but this hit the spot. Thanks again! Thank you so much!
