I got stuck dead in the water at this step:
bin/upgrading/update-db.pl --runsql --populate
replies:
Can't connect to the database (clust#0), so I can't update it.
I know MySQL is running and I can get status from it from mysql-admin tool. I think I have set up all the permissions etc. I've tried both port and socket method, with same result. I also tried 127.0.0.1 for the hostname and it did not fix it.
I see others have had this problem and I did not see a resolution. Any advice? Please help!
