'command not found' means that the server cannot find the application. Either alias it or add /usr/local/MySQL/mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686/bin/ to your path or try cding to /usr/local/MySQL/mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686/bin/ and then running it or just type the entire path at your prompt.
the error 13 is unrelated, that is permissions being set up incorrectly If the deamon was not running you would get a different error, something along the lines of "mysql server not found on ..." -----Original Message----- From: CM Miller [mailto:cmmiller1973@;yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 5:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Still not getting a mysql prompt I'm still not getting a mysql prompt to login to. I've tried what was suggested below, but I'm not sure what it does and I searched for that directory and could not find a TMPDIR. If I try loging in under Root or as a user by typing mysql I get an error message: command not found, but the mysql daemon is running. Do I need to link some files from /usr/local/MySQL to /bin?
