Hi,
I installed the mysql-3.22.26a version on my
linux machine and executed the following commands
Untar it and change into the source directory tree:
tar -xvzf mysql-3.22.26a.tar.gz
cd mysql-3.22.26a
Configure the package; I used following options:
./configure --prefix=/opt/mysql
Build it:
make
Install it; as root:
make install
You'll then need to configure the installation:
As root, create the grant tables:
scripts/mysql_install_db
As root, start the server:
/opt/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &
As root, create the mysql user:
useradd -c "MySQL Administrator" -d /opt/mysql -g users
mysql
As root, give the installation tree to the mysql user:
chown -R mysql.users /opt/mysql
Now when i execute the "mysqladmin
version " command it says can't connect to local MySQL
server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'.The MySQL
server is running but there is no /mysql/mysql.sock so what
do i need to do now.Thank you.
