Ok, I have decided to try to get 3.23.32 built but I have a problem. I'm
building on Mac OS X Public Beta (Darwin) and the docs say it should
recognize this platform and work easily. It does configure, build and
install without a hitch, but it won't run.
I'm configuring it to install in /usr/local/mysql. I configured like this:
configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
Later, I also tried using an additional parameter 'exec_prefix' or something
like that (I believe I found it with configure --help...but I don't see it
in the docs right now and I'm not in a place to check the help).
In any case, when I finish, safe_mysqld results in:
The file /usr/local/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable
Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart
this script from there as follows:
./bin/safe_mysqld.
Following those directions (which indicate a problem anyway...) results in
the exact same error. I then modified the safe_mysqld script to look in the
right place. Then it gives me:
touch: /usr/local/var/gwcdev.err: No such file or directory
chown: /usr/local/var/gwcdev.err: No such file or directory
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/var
./bin/safe_mysqld: no such file or directory:
/usr/local/var/gwcdev.err [210]
./bin/safe_mysqld: no such file or directory:
/usr/local/var/gwcdev.err [216]
tee: /usr/local/var/gwcdev.err: No such file or directory
010201 18:59:51 mysqld ended
tee: /usr/local/var/gwcdev.err: No such file or directory
Clearly it's confused about directories, but I'm not sure why. Adding a
directory /usr/local/var just results in a new set of errors. Can anybody
recommend anything...
Thanks,
Geoff
