Hello, We are trying to build from source MySQL standard ver. 4.2.1 on an Intel-based machine running LINUX FEDORA Core 5 without success Using a binary distribution. No RPMs
Hardware being used: Optiplex GX620 Dell system. Pentium D-based processor and 1 GB of memory. Kernel 2.6.15-1.2045_FC5 The compiler being used is gcc version 4.1.0 20060304 Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.1.6 is up and running on the system. This is a brand new Linux install without any previous installations of MySQL I proceeded to download and install unzip mysql-standard into the usr/local/ folder ... The filename is mysql-standard-4.2.1-pc-linux-gnu-i686 –glibc23.tar.gz. The step where it fails is basically the compilation process. Steps to reproduce: shell> groupadd mysql shell> useradd -g mysql mysql shell> gunzip < mysql-standard-4.2.1-pc-linux-gnu-i686 –glibc23.tar.gz | tar -xvf - shell> cd mysql-standard-4.2.1-pc-linux-gnu-i686 –glibc23 shell> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql At this point I get the following message [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql-standard-4.1.21-pc-linux-gnu-i686-glibc23]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql NOTE: This is a MySQL binary distribution. It's ready to run, you don't need to configure it! To help you a bit, I am now going to create the needed MySQL databases and start the MySQL server for you. If you run into any trouble, please consult the MySQL manual, that you can find in the Docs directory. Installing all prepared tables Fill help tables To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: ./bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' ./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h localhost.localdomain password 'new-password' See the manual for more instructions. You can start the MySQL daemon with: cd . ; ./bin/mysqld_safe & You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench' directory: cd sql-bench ; perl run-all-tests Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script! The latest information about MySQL is available on the web at http://www.mysql.com Support MySQL by buying support/licenses at http://shop.mysql.com Starting the mysqld server. You can test that it is up and running with the command: ./bin/mysqladmin version [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql-standard-4.1.21-pc-linux-gnu-i686-glibc23]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.21-pc-linux-gnu-i686-glibc23/data STOPPING server from pid file /usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.21-pc-linux-gnu-i686 -glibc23/data/localhost.loca ldomain.pid 061012 09:04:35 mysqld ended [EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql-standard-4.1.21-pc-linux-gnu-i686-glibc23]# I looked at the section Dealing with Problens Compiling MySQL available here http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/compilation-problems.html But I wihtout success. I did however, clear the cache by doing: hell> rm config.cache shell> make clean Re-tried again and still no go. shell> make *causes to generate the following error: shell> make install * displays the following shell> /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql & *gives me the following message: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ./mysqld_safe: line 183: my_print_defaults: command not found ./mysqld_safe: line 188: my_print_defaults: command not found The file /usr/local/mysql/bin/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/mysqld_safe. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqld_safe.html for more information I tried MySQL 5.0 with the exact same result. Anybody has any suggestions? All we are trying to do is to install apache + php + mysql. Being mysql the last one we need to get working.
