Hi All,
I am a new user of mysql. I too installed mysql on my
linux box. but i get the same message. what is this
message and how do we solve it. 
I had the client and server RPM and installed them. 
I once managed to start the server with mysqld. But
now the server also doesnt start saying host.frm
error. Please do let me know the details of linux
installation. I need mysql very badly and I am seeking
help from all of you.
Thanks 
Ajay
PS - Micheal , If you get to know how this problem can
be solved do let me know. I shall do the same if I get
the solution
