I didn't pick the operating system( I don't know it well at all ), and didn't do the install of mysql on this system, but now I have to figure out where things are and how to fix it. What I am use to, is installing on Red Hat with the rpm. ( if someone knows the differences in the operating systems and the setup of mysql, you can see why I am confused) The rpm is nice enough to put mysqld in the /etc/init.d and respective places on Red Hat The FreeBSD doesn't even have these locations, nor does it have a mysqld anywhere
We have the server rebooting every Monday morning ( why are we rebooting the server? don't know, its the specifications set from above ) from a cron job So, the mysql server is not starting up. Is there supposed to be some version of the mysqld somewhere? Or am I expected just to call safe_mysqld myself from cron? Can someone please point me in the right direction? (unfortunately I don't have time to learn the nature of FreeBSD at the moment) Luc Foisy --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
