Looks like there is a problem with 4.0.3 or I am doing 
something wrong:
First I tried to  upgrade from rpm, 

linux:/home/me/TMPOUT # 
rpm -e   MySQL-4.0.3-0.i386.rpm
error: package MySQL-4.0.3-0.i386.rpm is not installed
linux:/home/me/TMPOUT # rpm -i   MySQL-4.0.3-0.i386.rpm
package MySQL-4.0.3-0 is already installed
linux:/home/me/TMPOUT # rpm -e   MySQL-4.0.3-0.i386.rpm
error: package MySQL-4.0.3-0.i386.rpm is not installed



linux:/home/db/TMPOUT # rpm -q mysql
package mysql is not installed

>linux:/home/db/TMPOUT #  rpm -qa | grep MySQL
>MySQL-shared-4.0.3-0
>MySQL-client-4.0.3-0
>MySQL-devel-4.0.3-0
>MySQL-4.0.3-0
>linux:/home/db/TMPOUT # /usr/bin/mysql
>ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server 
>through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
FIrst, it 
Looks like rpm for 4.0.3 does not work. ANyone installed
 from rpm?

Second, I went to the tarball:
linux:/usr/local #  groupadd mysql
groupadd: group mysql exists
linux:/usr/local # useradd -g mysql mysql
useradd: user mysql exists
linux:/usr/local # ln -s /usr/local/mysql-4.0.3-beta-pc-
linux-gnu-i686 mysql
linux:/usr/local # cd mysql
linux:/usr/local/mysql # scripts/mysql_install_db
Installing all prepared tables
Unknown suffix ' ' used for 
variable 'thread_concurrency' (value '4 # Try number of 
CPU's*2')
./bin/mysqld: Error while setting value '4 # Try number 
of CPU's*2' to 'thread_concurrency'
Installation of grant tables failed!

Examine the logs in ./data for more information.
You can also try to start the mysqld daemon with:
./bin/mysqld --skip-grant &
You can use the command line tool
./bin/mysql to connect to the mysql
database and look at the grant tables:

shell> ./bin/mysql -u root mysql
mysql> show tables

Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths. 
Using --log
gives you a log in ./data that may be helpful.

The latest information about MySQL is available on the 
web at
http://www.mysql.com
Please consult the MySQL manual section: 'Problems 
running mysql_install_db',
and the manual section that describes problems on your 
OS.
Another information source is the MySQL email archive.
Please check all of the above before mailing us!
And if you do mail us, you MUST use the ./bin/mysqlbug 
script!

I don't get it, since here is /etc/my.cnf
Any ideas what I should check??

Thanks, S.Alexiou
