mysql starting server
trouble starting the mysql server ./mysql/host.frm not found (misleading message)
____________________
Here's why. Your mysql directory, where host.frm lives,
is owned by root and only readable by root, but mysqld runs as user mysql.
Try (as root)
cd /var/lib/mysql
chown -R mysql:mysql .
As you say you've tried messing with host.frm, you might also want to rerun mysql_install_db just in case.

thanks to Harold Stassen...mysql forum
just learned that the mysql:mysql sets owner and group in one bang
seems mysql needs some application of the set uid facility
mysql comes with Redhat (and other (et al)) Linices
Mysql SQL doesn't understand the Oracle data type "number(p,n)"
Free and fun!
mysql manual is on your HD already
file:///usr/share/doc/mysql-3.23.52/manual.html put into browser
by the way, currently using Netscape 7.1 under Redhat 8
prevents popups and may run .aspx ????
