I am currently trying to set up a comment script on a page. The webpage it self is here : http://splitendz.net/testimonies.php The tutorial and code came from this page here : http://www.zimmertech.com/tutorials/php/25/comment-form-script-tutorial.php I keep getting the following error: Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/content/s/p/l/splitendz/html/inc_rate.php on line 12 I cannot connect to the database because: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2) If anyone can look at this and help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.
