I'm trying to reset my mariadb password following this site -> https://www.rosehosting.com/blog/how-to-reset-your-mariadb-root-password/
but when I enter mysql -u root I get the following error:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2 "No such file or directory")
Any ideas? Thanks.
