Hello all, I am trying to move our OTRS system from a small Linux machine to a Solaris server. I have installed the latest version of OTRS, Apache, MYSQL, and literally dozens of PERL modules in order to run OTRS on Solaris. I ran into the "no connection to syslog" error the first time I tried running http://localhost/otrs/installer.pl http://localhost/otrs/installer.pl . I managed to get around that problem and finish the configuration but I've run into a new problem. When I try going to http://localhost/otrs/index.pl http://localhost/otrs/index.pl I get the following message: Software error: no connection to syslog available at ../..//Kernel/System/Log/SysLog.pm line 63 For help, please send mail to the webmaster (you@example.com), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. When I went to check the Apache error logs here's what I found: [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] [error] [client 130.170.246.72] [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] index.pl: DBI connect('database=otrs;host=localhost;','root',...) failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) at /lapps/otrs/bin/cgi-bin/../../Kernel/System/DB.pm line 197 [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] [error] [client 130.170.246.72] [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] index.pl: unix dgram connect: Socket operation on non-socket at ../..//Kernel/System/Log/SysLog.pm line 63 [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] [error] [client 130.170.246.72] [Tue Feb 12 16:22:15 2008] index.pl: no connection to syslog available at ../..//Kernel/System/Log/SysLog.pm line 63 Can anyone point me in the right direction to solve this error?
