Thread:Project:Support desk/Change location of mysql.sock

Is there a way to have the Setup script look for mysql.sock in a different location? Currently mine is in /tmp/mysql.sock not /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.

In the setup configuration GUI I am getting: DB connection error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) (localhost).

Check the host, username and password and try again. I am unable to locate the LocalSettings.php file.
