Background:
I'm trying to install the full complement of mysql software...share,
development, client, and server. I have installed the source for
3.23.38 server and it has worked flawlessly. Nonetheless, I now need
all of the above pieces of software on my new box.
Problem:
I can only find:
1. Source for ONLY 3.23.38 server
2. RPMs for share, development, client and server for 3.23.37
I have no problem using the 3.23.37 stuff, but when I install the
rpms the installation seems incomplete and just...wrong for lack of a
better word. I was under the impression that the default location
was /usr/local/mysql. It is for the source. But things seem spread
ALL over the place when I install from the RPMs. For example there
is no /usr/local/mysql. Another example, after the server is done
installing, I am instructed to cahnge the password via
/usr/bin/mysqladmin, but mysqladmin is no where to be found. This
happened on installs from both my RedHat 7.1 distro and from the
tarball I downloaded from mysql.com. Am I missing something? I
thought I hated RPMs before, but now I REALLY can't stand them.
Is there anywhere to get the latest versions of the source for all
the components of mysql?
I have installed and reinstalled countless times...i can't stand it
anymore. I would be extremely greatful if someone could explain
these confusing issues to me. Thank you.
