How to Solve the XAMPP 1.7.7 - PHPMyAdmin - MySQL Error #2002 in Ubuntu

Question

I have been through lots of forums and checked various posts on similar topic but non seems to work out for me.

I have freshly installed XAMPP 1.7.7 on my Ubuntu 11

Answer 1

please check the mysql.ini file in your xampp mysql installation... its found on xampp/mysql/bin directory

check the line 43

> log_error="mysql_error.log"
> #bind-address="127.0.0.1"

uncomment the line 43 if its still commented
