Hi all,

I'm updating my SimpleInvoices patch ATM and have stuck a strange problem. In the conf script, when finishing up the patching process I stop the MySQL service (as per you usually do - so the patching can complete cleanly) but when stopping MySQL errors with first:

ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'sending authentication information', system error: 32

Then followed with about 10-15 lines of this error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

I have googled extensively and it seems like a common problem that relates to MySQL not running... But I'm closing MySQL so of course it's not running...!

I initially thought that perhaps the database import is being interupted but i have tried using the 'wait' command to wait until the import has completed (a google turned this command up but I'm not 100% sure that it's working...). But the error still occurs. The funny thing is that if I apply the patch manually (extract ISO, chroot in, copy paste conf file line-by-line) it works as expected, but when running the patch via TKLPatch it errors everytime...

I have also checked that the data is in MySQL and it seems that it's all there so I'm really not sure what is going on!?

I have also tried turning on TKLPatch debugging and it isn't showing up anything that seems to be an issue...

Anybody got any ideas for me?

[update] Doing a little more testing and it seems there is an Apache issue too:

apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for core

Not sure if this is related, or just another issue...?
