[rt-users] problems "starting up" RT2 - can't connect to MySQL

Yesterday I've sent a message about my problems conserning DBI.pm, after 
some more checks, I managed to solve the problem (i dunno if it's the 
right way), by making a symlink.

DBI.pm is located in /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Apache/DBI.pm 
when Apache complained that it doesn't find it in @INC, so i made a 
symlink in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i386-linux/Apache/DBI.pm which 
solved the problem.

In httpd.conf I have:

<VirtualHost 192.168.1.8>
DocumentRoot /opt/rt2/WebRT/html
ServerName rt2.sportina.si
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /opt/rt2/bin/webmux.pl
<Location />
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler RT::Mason
</Location>
</VirtualHost>

I get a 500 server internal error if I point the browser to rt2.sportina.si.
In error log of apache I found this:

[Tue May 22 13:32:11 2001] [notice] Apache/1.3.14 (Unix)  
(Red-Hat/Linux) DAV/1.0.1 PHP/4.0.1pl2 mod_perl/1.24 configured -- 
resuming normal operations
DBI->connect(dbname=rt2;host=localhost) failed: Can't connect to local 
MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Handle.pm line 118

MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)
at /opt/rt2/lib/RT.pm line 14

I tried perl -MCPAN -e'install DBD::mysql::Install' didn't help either.

And yes mysql is running, and yes it's the correct version.

Can anyone advise what to do?

Thank you in advance,
Alesh
