[Karuzo]

Hey Guys i have found a savesystem with mysql on community.multitheftauto.com ,

but i wanted to add the row player , so i did , mysql import works fine , but if i start the ressource , it says Trouble.

I have loaded the Module and i used localhost and 127.0.0.1 ....

Error :

Unable to connect to mysql: (2002) Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'

U started your home MySQL server & gave correct data in the configuration file?

[Karuzo]

No lol,

im using a bought Server by ByServ,

the MySQL data is correct.

You got a MySQL database from MyServ?

Also, you can try to input also port & socket in mysql:

local handler = mysql_connect("127.0.0.1", "username", "password", "database", 3306, "/var/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15", "")

Ye from ByServ ,

ok thank you i'll try it out.

You should ask for the hostname of your ip database, databases can be on other server than 127.0.0.1 (dedi with your gameserver)
