Slack 10, fresh install, mysqld start problem.

jml75 · 08-16-2004, 09:53 PM

Just freshly installed slack, complete install.

Chose to start mysqld at boot time during installation.

But when mysqld starts, I see it starts but after only 1 second or two it shuts down with:
040816 20:48:50 mysqld ended
( well it shows the actual time but the 6 digits number is the same.)

And it does that no matter how I start it.

Any Idea?
Can some one give me a hint on that?

Thanx.

At the risk of repeating myself (and others) please do a search for a subject before you post a question. The search button is at the top of the page. For "Search for items including these words:" put in "MySQL" and then select to return results from the Slackware forum.

Top 4 relevant results:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ighlight=MySQL

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ighlight=MySQL

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ighlight=MySQL

EDIT: Fixed my own stupidity (broken links)

Now if you did the search, tried following the directions, and still had problems let us know.

Read /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld
There you have the steps to follow to get mysql running.

Good to know none of those links work though...

Oops, corrected. Copied the links from another message on the exact same subject. The search directions were still valid. (Attempting to regain some dignity here...)

Thanx for correcting your links! The first one was the one for me! Now I got it to work.

Thanx.

For your information, I did search in google and in the forum but I probably did not look good enough.

No problem. Sorry, I did not mean to be hostile, not searching before posting is rapidly becoming my pet peeve though. (How many times can the question "How do I get my scroll wheel working?" be asked? The answer has not changed in the last 2 years.) If you say in your (initial) post that you searched and could not find anything I would be less likely to be snippy.

Later.
