Hello, on step two, after typing in my database info, I get this error:

Failed to connect to your MySQL database server. MySQL reports the following message: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2).

    * Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    * Are you sure that you have typed the correct database hostname?
    * Are you sure that the database server is running?

For more help, see the Installation and upgrading handbook. If you are unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your hosting provider.

I know for a fact that all three questions asked in the error message are being met correctly. Any other ideas? I've tried it with v4 and 5 mySQL.

Anybody have any ideas? It's a rather cryptic error message.

Puh-lease... I've done searching, but I cannot find anything that really pertains to my problem... or it needs a bit more explanation. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on GoDaddy hosting.

Ok, I found out, I needed to open the advanced menu and type in a custom host. :p That fixed it... localhost wasn't cutting it.

I had the same problem when trying to set up Drupal 6.1 with a godaddy account (for the first time, I am an absolute Newbie). Besides entering the custom host information I had to enter the port number of the database server which was 3306. I found it by searching (ctrl+f "port") the admin documentation of the database host.

I too am a newbie to drupal, though I have worked extensively on other CMSs, but I had the same exact problem trying to install 6.1 onto my Mac. The solution, as above, was to enter .local in the server under advanced, and designate the port as 3306. Leaving the server name as "localhost" simply doesn't work.

OMG! I was going to pull my hair out on this one.

Thanks so much - such a simple solution.

I have the same problem with 6.3 and 6.x-dev, none of the tips above solve my problem.

I'm sorry, but we don't handle support requests in the Drupal Core issue queue as a regular practice. There are several support options listed if you click on "Community and Support" at the top of Drupal.org, which will take you to: http://drupal.org/community.

There you can find out about the Drupal IRC channels, and the Forums, which are our two main support mechanisms in the Drupal community.

Good luck with your issue!
