Yes... it appeared a popup with SELinux errors, I opened it and shows:

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/httpd from connectto access on the
unix_stream_socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests
 ***************************

If you believe that httpd should be allowed connectto access on the
mysql.sock unix_stream_socket by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep /usr/sbin/httpd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

So I guess it has blocked the access, I tried a command to allow access
that posted another user on my thread, but didn't work... How can I unlock
it? I've never used SELinux...

Thanks for your help!
