To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: installation problem[50 character or so descriptive subject here (for reference)]
Hi, I am a student at NYU trying to install mysql on our department machines. The fact that I do not have root priviledges is probably part of the issue, but I followed the instructions regarding installation as a normal user. When running the installation script "mysql_install_db", everything seems fine. But when I try lauching the daemon with "safe_mysqld" is ends immediately. It could be due to the fact that I don't see a "mysql.sock" file in my /tmp directory, but I don't know how to create a socket. we have Solaris 8. Thank you.
