Out of the blue CQRlog crashed (honestly, was just inputting QSL data) and now nothing works. No logs to choose from. Says can't connect to database. Tried this thread: https://www.cqrlog.com/node/1296 but it won't connect to the database for a dump:

(mysqldump: Got error: 2002: "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/home/hans/.config/cqrlog/database/sock' (2)" when trying to connect).

Any other suggestions for a fix appreciated (been busy for three hours with this. Kind of exhausted now).

Wondering if someone could look at this for me and see any problems.

I'm new to linux but I have install CQRLOG but it says fatal error with mysqld it wants me to run mysqld as root.

Can someone walk me through this.
Thanks

I have successfully changed to using an external MySQL database rather than the db that comes with CQRLOG. This is working fine, however when I first set it up I connected to the database using the root user. I now wna tot change to a new user I have created called cqrlog. When I fire up CQRLog it asks for the db username and password, to now saves the cqrlog user I have created but the password seems to be stuck with the origional root password, so each time I start up CQRLog I have to retype the password.

Hi everyone,

I'm still a noob when it comes to Linux. I have been using CQRLOG on a Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon PC for about 2 months. In my set up, I have a dual boot PC. Windoze 7 and Linux Mint, as I'm sure MANY others have the exact same set up too.
