I need some newbie help...

I've installed RedHat7.1 off RH7.1 CDs, also, installed MySQL that came with
it,

the installed MySQL did NOT have InnoDB support;

I then d/l off mysql.com

MySQL-Max-3.23.49a-1.i386.rpm

I installed it using:

rpm --install MySQL-Max-3.23.49a-1.i386.rpm

(I think.... that's how it's meant to be installed, I'm a newbie)

howver, on restart. the 'original CD revison' started, NOT, MAX

then, i tried starting MySQL-Max by explicitly calling it, it said:

'you have wrong error files'

SO:

using webmin, I removed all mysql packages;
then, using webmin, installed MySQL-Max-3.23.49a-1.i386.rpm

now it tell me, the MySQL-Max-3.23.49a is only an extension:

----
Optional MySQL server binary that supports features
                 like transactional tables. To active this binary, just install this
                 package after the MySQL package.
-----

but, reading on mysql download page, implies, MySQL-Max-3.23.49a-1.i386.rpm
is all I need...

help....

so, at this time:

accoriding to webmin I have:

Packages matching mysql

Package Class Description
MySQL-Max 3.23.49a-1 Applications/Databases MySQL - server with Berkeley DB
and Innodb support 

perl-DBD-MySQL 1.2215-1  Applications/CPAN A MySQL interface for perl 

php-mysql 4.0.4pl1-9 Development/Languages A module for PHP applications

webmin says:

MySQL Database Server 
The MySQL admin program /usr/bin/mysqladmin was not found on your system. Maybe MySQL 
is not installed,
or your module configuration is incorrect.


can this MySQL run as a server ?
where is a client

[root@charly /]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld start
bash: /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld: No such file or directory
[root@charly /]#
