I have just installed mysql on a RH7.1 system from
mysql-3.23.38-pc-linux-gnu-i686.tar.gz using the procedure in the manual.
---------------------------------
shell> useradd -g mysql mysql
shell> cd /usr/local
shell> gunzip < /path/to/mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gz | tar xvf -
shell> ln -s mysql-VERSION-OS mysql
shell> cd mysql
shell> scripts/mysql_install_db
shell> chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql
shell> chgrp -R mysql /usr/local/mysql
shell> bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql &
----------------
When I try to start the daemon, it immediately stops as shown below:
[root@gstpc mysql]# bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql &
[1] 1664
[root@gstpc mysql]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from
/usr/local/mysql/data
010611 21:20:10 mysqld ended
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
