Hello all, I hope someone can help. I have a fresh install of Red Hat 7.0, I installed mysql-3.23.22-6.i386.rpm and then mysql-server-3.23.22-6.i386.rpm. Supposedly the daemon is automatically starts, well it doesn't. I tried the mysql_install_db and it runs, but I don't think it makes the databases because when I try to start the daemon with safe_mysqld & it says it tries to open the databases in /var/lib/mysql, shouldn't there be a data directory or something? I don't know, but it can't find them because the script immediately ends. The listing of the /var/lib/mysql is localhost.localdomain.err mysql/ mysql.sock= test/ Any help would be appreciated, I have a school project deadline coming up with JDBC and my problem is with this database more than the code. I would prefer to use mysql, but if I can't get it running, I might have to use MSAccess :-( Thanks in advance, Joe
