I installed Debian Etch using the Perfect Install without hitch. Moved on to ISPConfig. When I installed it I got it up and running no problem, but the next time I logged in this is what I got: Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111 in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/classes/ispconfig_db_mysql.lib.php on line 77 Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() [function.mysql-real-escape-string]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/login.php on line 40 Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() [function.mysql-real-escape-string]: A link to the server could not be established in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/login.php on line 40 Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() [function.mysql-real-escape-string]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/login.php on line 41 Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() [function.mysql-real-escape-string]: A link to the server could not be established in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/login.php on line 41 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/lib/classes/ispconfig_db_mysql.lib.php:77) in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/login/login.php on line 60 Any suggestions? If this is an issue that has been dealt with in another thread please direct me there and I will read up on it. Thank you.

more Here's an interesting discovery - I get the above error message regardless of the username or password I enter. I changed my password when I first logged in. Is it possible this is part of the issue?
mysql missing components You're right about MySQL falco - from what I have been able to determine so far I am missing mysqld.sock - not only is it not located where it should be, I can't find it at all to do a symbolic link (I used grep). I've tried to find info on how to get it or re-build it, but no luck so far. At this point I'm thinking of scrapping the whole install and starting over, but I'd probabaly learn more if I could figure out how to troubleshoot the existing install. Any help would be appreciated, but I understand I'm not offering much to work with. If you need me to provide more info let me know and I'll dig into it. Thank you!
