well the problem was olved when i used the follwoing command scripts/mysql_install_db --user=root bin/mysqld_safe --user=root
Gues by default it was not creating the mysql user. Now on prompt mysql is running fine... But... As I am trying to port my MySQL code on HP-UX, and am unable to link my code as I am getting the standard functions like mysql_query(), mysql_store_result() etc as undefined. I am currently linking my code with libmysqlclient_r.a. Do I need any other library to be linked as well?????? Note that the same code runs perfectlty fine on Linux On 12/13/06, Nils Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Did you do that? Is there a user called "mysql"? regards Nils -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
