Selecting data from mysql using qt?
-
Don't bother with the log files, I guess Qt looks at the wrong place for the socket file...
Let's check this line in your mysql config file (my.cnf):
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
You should find my.cnf in /etc/ or /etc/mysql/ ... I don't know ubuntu that much.

1st solution returns this
@
root@zafar-laptop:/# find /opt/lampp -name *.log
/opt/lampp/htdocs/xampp/contrib/sqlnet.log
@ -
with which editor i can view that .conf file. with gedit or something.

BTW a quick sum:
- mysql is installed
- database and tables are created
- access is granted
- qt code looks fine
I see two possibilities here: libmysqlclient is missing, or the socket file is at different place.
-
the file my.cnf is in etc/mysql folder
-
doforumda: use gedit
sudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf
at least most of the ubuntu machines have the config file there.
-
this is the socket line in my.cnf
@
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

ok then the wrong socket guess was wrong... but let's make it sure:
sudo ls -l /var/run/mysqld/*
-
after running this sudo ls -l /var/run/mysqld/* there is nothing inside run directory
-
uhmmmmmmm that's more than strange, the socket file should be there somewhere, let's find it:
find /var -name mysqld.sock
if no result:
find /opt -name mysqld.sock
-
both of them didnt return any resutl
@
root@zafar-laptop:/# find /var -name mysqld.sock
root@zafar-laptop:/# find /opt -name mysqld.sock
root@zafar-laptop:/#

I have bitnami lampp stack installed and when I start it then the socket file is created in /opt/lamppstack/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock. I think doforumda shoudl have similar directory and we need to check the permissions for that directory.
-
Usually that means, that the mysql daemon is not running... but the the command line should not work as well... ;(
It doesn't hurt to try to start the daemon:
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
... and do the search for the socket file as above.
-
gosh, do the find with sudo:
sudo find /opt -name mysqld.sock
sudo find /var -name mysqld.sockdamn, I always forget that with ubuntu
-
lyuts: yes, if he have the socket file at the same place, we need to symlink it to the /var/... location and happy end :) I hope so.
-
tyut: yes i have one file with the name of mysql.sock in /opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.sock
-
the permissions on mysql.sock it read write exe for all types of users
-
Great, don't give up, we are close :D
ls -l /opt/lampp/var/mysql/*
maybe you have another mysql config file somewhere:
ls -l /opt/lampp/etc/my.cnf
or
ls -l /opt/lampp/etc/mysql/my.cnf
? -
gosh... all with sudo please
