After giving up MySQL installation with the RPMs I am now wanting to freshly install MySQL 3.23 (the latest) on my SUSE 7.3 Linux machine. I am a sort of newbie to Linux also. On p.98 of the Widenius MySQL reference manual I am suppose to do this;
Add the full path; /usr/local/mysql/mysql/bin Now I have to add this full pathname of this directory to my PATH environment variable so that my shell finds the MySQL programs properly. How do I do edit this PATH ? mike@cords-orj86jfje:/usr/local/mysql/mysql/bin> echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/games/bin:/usr/games:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/kde2/bin:.:/opt/gnome/bin mike@cords-orj86jfje:/usr/local/mysql/mysql/bin> Thanks, DeNewbie --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
