Configuration File Error

[jtnnettech]

Zabbix error when browsing: "Configuration file error DB type "MYSQL" is not supported by current setup. Possible values."

This happened after I upgraded the server from Ubuntu 16.04 to Ubuntu 16.04.2 () I shouldn't have done that.

Mysql service is running, I can connect to the zabbix DB with the mysql account in the zabbix conf files and show tables and info inside of those tables.

The error in zabbix_server.log is:

"1584:20170413:111329.002 [Z3001] connection to database 'zabbix' failed: [2002] Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)"

system:~$ ls -l /var/run/mysqld/
total 8
-rw-r----- 1 mysql mysql 4 Apr 13 11:13 mysqld.pid
srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 Apr 13 11:13 mysqld.sock
-rw------- 1 mysql mysql 4 Apr 13 11:13 mysqld.sock.lock

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i think maybe the service stuck ?
i have this :

[root@zabbix:~:] ls -l /var/run/mysqld/
total 4
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql mysql 6 Apr 9 09:12 mysqld.pid


can you try restart mysql ?
or mv /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock_old and restart ?

I ended up backing up the database, reinstalling ubuntu 14, reinstalling zambia, and restoring the database. I *think* that ubuntu not supporting PHP5 was the issue.

Thanks though!!!!
