Or should I say 4-day-mare...
I have been trying to set up mysql for the last 4 days with weird success.
I first installed mysql 6.0.8alpha not knowing I needed 5.0
compatibility for my ISP Website host.
I go everything working pretty well... mysql6, php5, phpMyAdmin, all on
FreeBSD 7.0 with apache2.2.9_5; all but the setup of the pba_history
table for phpmyadmin - just no way.
Anyway, I unistalled mysql6 and am now trying to install mySQL 5.1.30
from the FreeBSD ports collection.
I have tried about everything I can think of besides the arcane
documentation that is not at all accurate - for instance, there is no
mysq-test.pl or something like that that is referenced in the database,
but there is mysqltest in the .../bin directory. However, running that
results in errors.
When I do manage to set the root user password, it is not accepted... I
just cannot understand what kind of a mess this is.
The only thing I can provide is the error file: (biggie - is the name of
the server)

Either I am totally incompetent and cannot decipher the instructions or
there is some kind of beatie running here...
Hope somebody can help.
