Hi Dear Sir/Mdm, I've encountered a problem when I run 'scripts/mysql_install_db' command. The error message is following: Starting mysql server ./bin/safe_mysqld: /my/gnu/bin/hostname: not found ./bin/safe_mysqld: /my/gnu/bin/hostname: not found ./bin/safe_mysqld: /my/gnu/bin/hostname: not found Starting mysqld demon with databases from /usr/local/mysql-3.21.33b-sun-solaris2 .6-sparc/data mysqld demon ended I've followed the procedure of installation. What's wrong? Need to configure something? Looking forward to your reply. Thank you so much.
