Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi guys! I've been looking for the solution to the problem of MySQL being deactivated (I seldom use the unit in surfing, where the XAMPP is installed). I cant find a solution to the problem. It says

#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

. MySQL is deactivated..

But this problem disappears if i am connected to the internet (im online). I really dont know where to look at for its proper setup. Please help!

Do you have a mapping of 127.0.0.1 to localhost in your hosts file?

If not, create one, and restart - check results

Good Luck

Done.. Tnx man!
