setting up mysql
i would delete the last post but em too stupid :(
i have MySQL-3.23.53a-1.i386.rpm setup atm, and nfi what to do with it. most of the stuff in the documentation is on windows >:( shell> ./scripts/mysql_install_db ^it says to do that after installing, i dont even have a /scripts/ folder in root :/ well, there is more, it seems like the documentation is for an entirely different product to me. i can give the ssh pw if someone could please help me that way |
First of all I would never ever hand out ANY passwords! Especially not on forums, etc!
Second, you need to do a rpm -i <filename> The ./scripts/mysql_install_db is relative to the install path of MySQL. For the RPM-Release this would be something like /usr/bin/mysql_install_db To locate it after you've installed the package do find / -name mysql_install_db but for the RPM package most of the stuff is done itself AFAIK. |
markus good advice.
I had basically the same problem and solved it with a combination of the following advice and one from another thread in this forum. To get mysqld started I used: shell>mysql -u root mysql This gets a mysqld process started then followed the instructions on this page:- http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/P...ess/page6.html Got everything working fine, now to setup PHP..... Let the games begin! |
