getting started with GoMySQL, HELP !!

[Riadh Mankaï]

Hi every one,
I'm a student in an engineering school, in Marseilles, France. We are
currently working on a project in Go language : a basic CMS. But I
really have a problem to connect to a database from a go program. I've
tried many tools (GoSqlite, gopgsqldriver, mongodb), with no success.
I also didn't succeed to connect to a data base using GoMysql, but at
least, with this one, I'm sure it is well installed.

I've copied the code in the first example(simple query) in this page :
https://github.com/Philio/GoMySQL
I'm using Xampp on Ubuntu, so I've created a database with PhpMyAdmin
client.

It would be nice if you can help me. Thanks in advance !

Hi Riadh

Did you get some kind of error when you tried the library?

No, no errors ! It never connects to the database. For example, in the usage example in gihub, it quits the program : if err != nil {  

    os.Exit(1) 

This means that the first line gives an error : db, err := mysql.DialUnix(mysql.DEFAULT_SOCKET, "user", "password", "database") 

As I said before, I created the datebase using Xampp in Ubuntu, with the PHPMyAdmin tool. Maybe It was a wrong way to create the database.

It could be a compatibility problem with the latest version of Go, the library hasn't had many updates lately as I've been busy with a big project at work for the last 9 months and not any time to put into my own projects.
