I'm not sure which one it is, but I've been trying to set up a PHP Forum on my Mac, and when it comes to setup, I get an error:


Here are the details of my setup:
Computer: Macintosh G4 AGP Minitower
Processor: 400Mhz PowerPC G4
RAM: 1Gb SDRAM
OS: OS X 10.4.11
HD: ST320011A Quantum Fireball SE6.4A

phpMyAdmin: 2.11.11.1
MySQL: 5.0.87
UNIX socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
SMF version: 1.1.12

(Don't know what else to put for information)

I've tried two different forums (SMF and phpBB), but they BOTH look for /var/mysql/mysql.sock. I had to manually create /var/mysql/ and move mysql.sock over to it to make the install work properly, but I'm sure that's not right. I also changed the php.ini file to read "session.save_path=/var". Don't know if that will cause a problem, but we'll see.

Now, who can help with my problem? Anything would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks

I know almost nothing about setting up SQL but if the install failed without those folders I'd make sure you installed it right or were installing the right version.
