I really am running it all again ! Obviously though I am going wrong somewhere... I have killed it all and run it again 3 times now and getting the same errors, I think it is because I have done it so many times now... I have copied and pasted everything that i have typed (sorry that it is quite alot) in the hope that someone can see where I am going wrong:
here it is after I have killed everything: [root@jt local]# cd sfiles [root@jt sfiles]# ls acid-0.9.6b21.tar.gz mysql/ phplot-4.4.6.tar.gz apache_1.3.24-i686-whatever-linux22.tar.gz MySQL-Max-3.23.42-1.i386.rpm snort-1.8.6.tar.gz gd-2.0.11/ mysql.tar.gz snortrules.tar.gz gd-2.0.11.tar.gz openssl-0.9.6c.tar.gz zlib-1.1.4/ libpcap-0.7.1.tar.gz php-4.1.2.tar.gz zlib.tar.gz mod_ssl-2.8.8-1.3.24.tar.gz phplens27-021230.tgz [root@jt sfiles]# cd mysql [root@jt mysql]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --localstatedir=/var/mysql NOTE: This is a MySQL binary distribution.
