Confused with mySQL
i am confused with mSQL.
I want to download mySQL from http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-4.0.html but i dont know what file will fit on my OS (Redhat Linux 9) I want RPM. I attempted to download Linux x86 RPM downloads (Server) but when i open that file, it says reading package header and after that, nothing happened. pls help. thanks |
corrupt rpm?
download again. |
Maybe you are installing it with the GUI (e.g. just clicking on it), and I have found that I get the same problem as you with most of the RPM's I download, so I much prefer to use the CLI...
Instead try this: > Download the RPM > Go to the Command Line (Terminal) > Type "su root" and then enter your root password when prompted > then type "rpm -ivh [the name of the package you downloaded]" > Hit enter, and watch it do its thing :p (It will alert you of any errors here much better as well) |
Code:
[root@server1 mysql]# rpm -ivh MySQL-server-4.0.18-0.i386.rpm :( :newbie: |
try:
Code:
rpm -e --force MySQL-server-4.0.18-0 billy |
also this should take care of the whole problem -
just upgrade the MySQL: rpm -Uvh the.package.rpm |

how about --force --upgrade or whatever?
rpm --rebuild-database ?? perhaps the rpm database is corrupted? billy |
You can always install the binary version (.tar.gz). Please consult http://www.linux-corner.net/linux/services/mysql.html for more information!
