Hi ALL, I have compiled MySLQ 5.1.23-rc for Linux 64bit
./configure CC=gcc CFLAGS="-DBIG_JOINS=1 -O3" CXX=g++ CXXFLAGS="-DBIG_JOINS=1 -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -O3" --prefix=/app/mysql-5.1.23-rc --localstatedir=/app/mysql-5.1.23-rc/data --libexecdir=/app/mysql-5.1.23-rc/bin --datadir=/app/mysql-5.1.23-rc/data -with-comment="Debian x86_64" --with-server-suffix="Debian x86_64" --enable-shared --enable-static --enable-thread-safe-client --enable-assembler --enable-local-infile --with-big-tables --with-raid --with-mysqld-user=mysql --with-libwrap --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --with-vio --with-bench --with-readline --with-extra-charsets=all --with-innodb --with-isam --with-archive-storage-engine --with-csv-storage-engine --with-federated-storage-engine --with-embedded-privilege-control --with-zlib-dir=bundled --with-ssl=bundled --with-partition 1) While trying to run the sudo bin/mysql_install_db it failed (even though I specified the src directory) sudo bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql --builddir=/src/mysql-5.1.23-rc --srcdir=/src/mysql-5.1.23-rc --ldata=/app/mysql/data Installing MySQL system tables... Installation of system tables failed! Examine the logs in /app/mysql/data for more information. The logs did not get created; only the test database directory got created (only the directory) I did copy over the mysql-5.1.22-rc/data/mysql table files and after that the MySQL server was able to start. 2) I have tried to specify to mysqld (in the same way of MySQL 5.1.22-rc) to use more open files than limit using mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/app/mysql/etc/my.cnf --open-files-limit=200000 and it says [Warning] option 'open_files_limit': unsigned value 200000 adjusted to 65535 Is there any way to get around that, please ? Thanks in advance for your help, Mariella ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
