Okay, I've finally gotten around to trying to create an InnoDB database. I've configured MySQL on Linux Red Hat 6.2, mysql 3.23.44 with the --with-innodb parm. Everything installed wonderfully.
When I start up mysqld, the datafiles and logfiles are created just fine. But, when everything is done the following error appears: /usr/local/mysql/mysql-3.23.44-innodb/libexec/mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist I haven't yet found where the 'mysql.host' table comes from or where it's supposed reside. Anyone got any ideas while I work through the documentation I have available. Below is the full log file from the creation, along with the my.cnf file.
