Hi, I'm new here, and I'm actually really new to working with mySQL. I'm working on a website, and I want to install a shopping system, and I heard that osCommerce is pretty good, so I went with it. I noticed that I had to work with mySQL, which is something I'm not very familier with.
I uploaded all my files, however, I wasnt able to upload my .htaccess file. After seeing that everything seemed to work okay, I got an error when I was putting in my Database Server Information:
"A test connection made to the database was NOT successful.
The error message returned is:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql. sock' (46)
Please click on the Back button below to review your database server settings.
If you require help with your database server settings, please consult your hosting company."
Can anyone help me out please? The only thing I did was use PHPmyAdmin to make a database and that's all. I didnt edit the database.
If anyone has an easier way of having a shopping setup, please let me know. All I want really is a system identical to the one on this site:
