Is MySQL running? Did you run setup properly? Do you have any other development environments set up prior this? Double check MySQL installation instructions and reach out for help for example from here.

[rockts]

Thank you, buddy.

[ronilaukkarinen]

No probs!

[rockts]

Are you buddy, my mysql is still a bit problematic. Can you help me?

[ronilaukkarinen]

Can you be more specific? We are not really a MySQL/Linux support, but I can try to help if you tell more about your problem.

[rockts]

Sorry, my buddy is disturbing and the problem is solved. But still thank you

[ronilaukkarinen]

We have this issue on another machine. In what way did you get it solved @rockts?
