>Description: I've tried to install MySQL-2.23.37 on LinuxPPC dr4 (not a recent distribution, I know that...), from the source code (mysql-3.23.37.tar.gz). unzip of the file was successfull, configuration and compilation seem to have worked fine, but the installation of the grant tables failed, and returned the following message:
" [root@localhost mysql-3.23.37]# sh .scripts/mysql_install_db --log Preparing db table Preparing host table Preparing user table Preparing func table Preparing tables_priv table Preparing columns_priv table mysqld got signal 11; The manual section 'Debugging a MySQL server' tells you how to use a stack trace and/or the core file to produce a readable backtrace that may help in finding out why mysqld died. Installation of grant tables failed! Examine the logs in /usr/local/mysql/var for more information. You can also try to start the mysqld daemon with: /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld --skip-grant & You can use the command line tool /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql to connect to the mysql database and look at the grant tables: shell> /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root mysql mysql> show tables Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths.Using --log gives you a log in /usr/local/mysql/var that may be helpful. The latest information about MySQL is available on the web at ... etc... " The log file was not much more explicit : " /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld, Version: 3.23.37-log, started with: Tcp port: 3306 Unix socket: /tmp/mysql.sock Time Id Command Argument " At least, I would like to know what does 'mysqld got signal 11;' means, or refers to !!
