i have found this error when i want to create an user called cacti

Code: Select all

mysql --user=root mysql
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

and for netsnmp, i don't know how to resolv this error :

Code: Select all

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/net-snmp-5.1.2/man'
