Hello!
A> Here's my problem:
A> I had some pre-installed version of MySQL on a Linux machine that I didn't
A> want to use or know how to dispose of properly and then installed a source
A> distribution on the same machine. I've gotten the source distribution
A> installed all right and everything seems to be working smoothly enough,
A> however, I have a lot of defunct mysql files laying around my server that I
A> would like to get rid of (from the pre-installed distribution).
A> Additionally, I have to type the complete path to the new MySQL server, or
A> it will try to connect with the previously installed version. Anyone know
A> how I can get rid of the old files and fix my environment so that my new
A> MySQL distribution is called when I enter "mysql", "mysqladmin", and the
A> like on the command line?
A> TIA,
A> Anatole
Hello.
If you use one of modern RH-based linux distribution
(it's mean what your linux support RPM packages) just
remove mysql packages with 'rpm -e' command.
for example:
rpm -e mysql mysql-devel mysql-client
