Hi, A few days ago I had posted about configuring myODBC with MySQL and ColdFusion, while working on the same problem, I have now ruined (that is what I believe) my MySQL and it is not working.
What happened is as follows: 1. I had MySQL ver 3.23.43-1 as db installed 2. MySQL devel libraries installed ver - 3.23.22 3. ColdFusion ver 4.5.1 for Linux 4. Downloaded and installed MyODBC ver 2.50.39 (from tarball) (from rpm it was giving problem) 5. Downloaded and installed unixODBC-2.1.1 (from tarball) However as I was unable to configure MyODBC, I tried uninstalling everything and removed 1. ColdFusion 2. MySQL 3.23.43-1 ( however could not do so, and it flashed a message that dependenices with PHP will be broken) However at startup and shutdown I am told that MySQL server has been started and shutdown resp. but I cannot use the command 'mysql -u -p' and the bash says that command not found. Then I tried upgrading MySQL with 3.23.47 ver and downloaded the tarball and proceeded as written in INSTALL-BINARY file but failed everytime as it said that mysql already exists. Now what do I do next and how do I repair up. Pls. help regards Amit Bhargava _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
