Admin section error

[stryfedll]

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /home/www/url.com/admin/includes/functions/database.php on line 19

Unable to connect to database server!

 

:(

 

MY configure.php is all right.. This happened after I overwrote the /admin folder with the oscommerce default files.

 

Any idea whats wrong? Or what I overwrote in /admin with the default that needs to be changed back?

 

code from database.php

the problem is with your admin/includes/configure.php file. If your catalog section is working then copy and past the database info from your includes/configure.php file to the one for your admin.

This is a server problem - submit a support ticket with your host. I think the overwrite is just a coincidence.
