Hi, I'm a beginner of MySql. I've just installed the lastest ver. MySql under RH7.1 Linux. When I tried to up the MySql server by running safe_mysqld, it fails and I've got an error message logged as follows: 010718 18:10:05 mysqld started 010718 18:10:05 /usr/libexec/mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist 010718 18:10:05 mysqld ended I want to ask if anybody help me: 1. What is supposing the "mysql.host" file is required to contain???? Where can I find one such file???? Where should I put this file, to which directory??? Pls advise. Thank you for your attention.
