   Hi alex - I got received the same type of error running wp 2.3 with this beta that I did with the pre-2.3 version of your plugin: after submitting a new comment the white error page comes with:

   Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2) in …/catsandbeer/wp-content/plugins/popularity-contest-1.3b1/popularity-contest.php on line 546

   Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: A link to the server could not be established in …/catsandbeer/wp-content/plugins/popularity-contest-1.3b1/popularity-contest.php on line 546
   Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2) on line: 546

   the comment IS correctly stored/posted, but the behavior clearly isn’t acceptable on a live site (I pruned out the full path on my web host - it is correctly listed/reported in the error message)

   Hi,
   I have the same behaviour as Brian. Can the problem be related to the fact that my mysql server is on another machine than the web server?

   Thanks,
   Antonio

   Hi Alex

   I’m using Popularity Contest to display the 10 most popular post in my blog and I wonder if it would be possible to include a function to display the 10 LESS popular post. It is just an strategy to keep old post alive.

   Btw, I use Google XML Sitemaps and Popularity Contest, will PContest final compatible with sitemaps?

   Greetings!

    I’ve seen the same behavior as @roam on WP 2.3. I can enable Pop. Contest 1.3b1 OR Google Sitemaps 3.0 and comments work, but if I enable both I get a MySQL error about trying to connect. The comment is posted, but an error is shown and no email is sent.

    Any idea if there is a workaround?

    Hi Alex,

    I’ve opened a Trac ticket for the problem with the Google Sitemaps plugin. That fix should solve this issue…
