Very sorry for my childish question, I'm just starting to learn about MySQL Following is my procedure in fixing the problem of installation on Intel PC, and Linux RH7.3.
1. RPM installation 2. When execute mysql, there is a message "ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/msql.sock' (111)" 3. Follow the Binary installation 4. At ./scripts/mysql_install_db, there is a message "./bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete" 5. At ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql &, there is a message mysqld ended 6. The mysql command still cannot be executed successfully with the message in the 2nd step. In /var/log/mysql.log shows an error message "/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: can't find file: ./mysql/host.frm (errno: 13)", then "mysqld ended". There is a comment suggesting that this is about 'permittion denied', but the above process is run under user 'root@localhost'. Please suggest me how can I start mysql..
