Here is what I get ...linux:/usr/local/mysql # scripts/mysql_install_db Installing all prepared tables 020918 21:55:07 ./bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support- files/mysql.server to the right place for your system PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! This is done with: ./bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' ./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h linux password 'new- password' See the manual for more instructions. NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run the ./bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be able to use the new GRANT command! You can start the MySQL daemon with: cd . ; ./bin/mysqld_safe & You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench' directory: cd sql-bench ; perl run-all-tests Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script!
