I'm using XAMPP in Debian 8.9 with version R40 of this plugin and it loads properly but as soon as I attempt to do any SQL queries I get this error:

Quote:

MySQL: ERROR 2002 (Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)).

That directory/file however doesn't exist in the system, the socket is actually in /opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.sock as installed per XAMPP. Does anybody have any ideas of what could be causing this? Thank you.

EDIT: If anybody else is running into this problem, try creating a symlink between the two paths. It worked for me
