For a local MySQL connection, how would I find the unix socket number of the location connection? I don’t believe it’s in the ps command:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND
_mysql 141 0.0 0.0 34786180 3284 ?? Ss 6Jan22 16:21.85 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld...
Is there a simpler way to find that?
>Solution :
Here is an example of viewing the process(es) that have a given file open:
$ lsof /tmp/mysql.sock
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
mysqld 829 bkarwin 21u unix 0x1c2b10907d83adad 0t0 /tmp/mysql.sock
Or go the other way, listing all files open for the process id of mysqld:
$ lsof -p 829
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
...
mysqld 829 bkarwin 21u unix 0x1c2b10907d83adad 0t0 /tmp/mysql.sock
...
If you don’t know the process id, you can make lsof search for a process whose command starts with a given string:
$ lsof -c mysqld
(same output as for -p)
