Point taken..., maybe because, err..., uh...., nobody told me not to?
Yeah, that's it, that's the ticket. Well, now I know. Much kudos to
you and yours.
Anyway, here's what I did in case others need explicit guidance.
Installation (Souce tarball only):
- cd to the directory that you want to unpack the tarball into, say
/home/alex/install-platform.
- unpack the tarball. This will create a directory like
/home/alex/install-platform/mysql-max-version.
- Create the installation directory, NOTE:, this MUST be different than
the source directory above.
Let's use /home/alex/install-platform/mysql for example.
- cd to the directory that you unpacked the tarball in,
/home/alex/install-platform/mysql-max-version.
- Execute the "configure" command listed (way) below.
- make
- make install
- Now you should have everything you need installed under
/home/alex/install-platform/mysql .
- Add the directories to store the socket file and logs and whatever
else you've got specified in ~/.my.cnf.
Config command:
./configure --prefix=/home/alex/install-platform/mysql
--with-unix-socket-path=/home/alex/install-platform/mysql --with-innodb
--with-mysqld-user=mysql --with-comment --with-debug
OR (here's a good one, looks killer huh?)
CFLAGS="-O3" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions
-fno-rtti" \
./configure --with-server-suffix=-max --with-innodb \
--prefix=/home/alex/install_platform/mysql --enable-assembler \
--with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static
Thanks.
String so this comes up in a search should someone get the same error
message I got: "are the same file"
