Hi, If you are using binaries from mysql.com and extract the files and when u try to start the database it says in the error frm/* not found...then u might try out this option as Try to run the ./configure file which will come with binaries, It will auto create the frm and MY* files under the datadirectory of mysql (/usr/local/mysql/data).This might help u out.
under /usr/local/mysql u find a file configure Try to run it.....and check out. ----- Original Message ---- From: Warren Young <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: MySQL List <mysql@lists.mysql.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 8:09:30 AM Subject: Re: Can't find file: './mysql/(database_name).frm' Tim Johnson wrote: > > Is there a possible repair routine to run? It isn't "broken," per se. Someone chose to build it with this configuration, and presumably that person made a choice that is sensible for their needs. If it doesn't work for you, you can either build MySQL from source with the configuration choices you like, or switch to another build that has defaults you like. That's why I suggested downloading the official binaries from mysql.com: they work for most people. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists..mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
