Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) :(
help me frendz . . thanks in advance
Did you
1- set up the database before running install.php?
2- set up a database user and password before running install.php?
3- use the correct connection information for the alreayd ste up database and database user/password?
If you already did that, then this is not something we can really help with.... do what the instruction says: contact your host and ask them to help you with the correct connection information for your mySQL database

Does your host has Control Panel? if it has you can create a database at the Mysql Databases part. or you can ask your host to set it up for you and forward the details.
