[Koha] Unable to save marc record

[Doug Dearden]

Hi Sheldon,

It sounds like your mysql engine isn't started.  Try /etc/init.d/mysql start 

And put a UPS on that server, don't leave yourself susceptible to power outages.

Hope that works.

Best,

Doug

Subject: [Koha] Unable to save marc record

Hi All,

     Recently we developed a problem whilst trying to enter bibliographic
records into koha. 
All along, the data-entry process was going fine until we got a power
outage. The systems shutdown immediately. When the electricity was back on,
we attempted to enter bibliographic records into the  system but we
couldn't. Whenever we try save a record the following error message showed: 
    

*Koha error*

The following fatal error has occurred:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line
666.


Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue so that we can resume our
data-entry process. We are hoping to commence our online service soon, and
without the  following error fixed we cannot move forward.



Regards,
Sheldon
Asst Systems Librarian
