Hi All,
      I'm trying to install mysql-4.0.0-alpha on my RedHat 7.1 linux box and
somehow it's just not working. I follow all the instructions in the
INSTALL-SOURCE file but I get some weird errors like these when I try to
start mysql.

            Initially when i try to run the server by giving the command
$ /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe &
I get the following messages on the console.
[1] 28102
$ starting mysql daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
011213 :16:56:43 mysqld ended

      I've not idea why do I get the message "mysqld ended".

 When I try to start mysql by typing "mysql" at the command prompt I get the
following error:


Error 2002: Can't connect to MySQL server through socket
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.

 I've tried the installation about 2-3 times but i get the same messages all
the time.
Can anyone help me please :-(
Thanks in advance.
Nilesh
