i get this following error when i am trying to connect my localhost mysql to heroku postgres
!!! Caught Server Exception
HTTP CODE: 500
Taps Server Error: Mysql::Error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2). . .
any takers for this question? my OS is windows 7
thanks
Your mysql is most likely misconfigured. A win7 box is highly unlikely to have a
/var/rundirectory. So mysql is looking for its socket in the wrong place, and unable to connect.
