Ok Egor, here goes (not that it will give you any better information than I did already but since you asked...)
<<<exerpt from .err file follows>>> 020318 14:30:48 mysqld started 020318 14:30:49 /usr/libexec/mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist 020318 14:30:49 mysqld ended <<<exerpt from .err file ended>>> because I have about 18 similar blocks in my .err file for each time I tried to start the server to see if I fixed the problem coping the entire .err file didnt make any sense. Again, this is after running the mysql_install_db and verifing that permissions to the files created by mysql_install_db are correct. --skip-grant-tables will allow the server to start, but a normal start is impossible Rance >From: Egor Egorov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Server startup error on Linux >Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2002 15:38:03 +0200 > >Rance, >Thursday, March 21, 2002, 9:30:26 PM, you wrote: > >RH> I issued the chown command as indicated by Andreas >RH> but it doesnt help >RH> I still get the "Table mysql.hosts doesnt exist" > >RH> I know that all the tables created by mysql_install_db are infact owned >by >RH> mysql >RH> but the server daemon still cant find them > >Give me complete output of the error message - show us the >contents of the .err file > >RH> what next? _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
