Update: Now, after rebooting the server, the site can't connect...that's more like it ;)
-----Original Message----- From: Richard W. Berriman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, September 08, 2002 4:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Upgrading Hi! I have a number of tables in development in 3.22.32 (running in apache_1.3.12 on a linux kernel) I'd really like to upgrade to 3.23.49a but my installs in both rpm and binary have not succeeded in "taking over" from my previous install. I've read quite a bit at the mysql.com site, but haven't found the appropriate documentation ... my last attempt was by downloading MySQL-3.23.49-1.src.rpm, 0. Turn off current Web Server (/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop) 1. cp MySQL-3.23.49-1.src.rpm into /usr/local 2. rpm --recompile MySQL-3.23.49-1.src.rpm 3. mysql-3.23.49a-pc-linux-gnu-i686]# ./bin/safe_mysqld & // To start MySQL & use it This returns: Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/m ysql-3.23.49a-pc-linux-gnu-i686/data 020908 15:53:33 mysqld ended And the Mysql database driven website works... Yet, when I want to go into line commands (to alter tables for easy searching) using: mysql-3.23.49a-pc-linux-gnu-i686]# ./bin/mysql I get ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) There is no file by that name there... Well thankyou for any help :-) Richard --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
