This has come up before. In fact, I had the exact same problem. You can see the the thread "Coredump when running scripts/mysql_install_db " at
http://lists.mysql.com/cgi-ez/ezmlm-cgi?1:msp:93051 The conclusion is in "Problem with setrlimit on HPUX 10.20" at http://lists.mysql.com/cgi-ez/ezmlm-cgi?1:msn:94565 In short, HP-UX 10.20 has a bug in dce/cma_ux.h which breaks setrlimit when largefiles is enabled. If I understood him correctly, Monty (Michael Widenius) acknowledged that his copy of HP-UX 10.20 has this flaw, but he says his copy of the official binary works there, though I honestly cannot see how. In my case, I didn't need largefile support, so my workaround was to compile MySQL from source, adding --disable-largefile to the options recommended in the manual. Ideally, the solution would be for HP-UX to fix dce/cma_ux.h as Monty described. Michael On Mon, 8 Apr 2002, Clarence W. Robison wrote: > > > >Description: > 1.
