I was able to successfully install Coppermine, but whenever I browse to /path/login.php? or /path/index.php I get the following error:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !
MySQL said: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
[/qoute]
Any ideas?
install.php wasn't saving my info to the config.inc.php file. I put the info in manually, and I'm all set now.
Probably you didn't set write permissions for the script on coppermine's include folder, so the config file could be written. Check if there's an install.lock file in the include folder. If not, delete the file install.php from your coppermine folder, or people might deliberately break your coppermine install by running the installer a second time.

Yes I did set the write permissions on the include folder, and it was making the include.lock file. I noticed that the config.inc.php didn't have write permissions on it though. Maybe it's not supposed to after it's created? I'll delete the install.php file. thanks!
