Hi All,

Downloaded
mysql-standard-4mysql-standard-4.0.10-gamma-sun-solaris2.8-sparc.tar.gz.

If this is NOT installed in /usr/local/mysql and you try and start it using
support-files/mysql.server it fails with error:

$ ./support-files/mysql.server start
./support-files/mysql.server: /usr/local/mysql: does not exist

Yet in ./support-files/mysql.server on line 30:

# If you install MySQL on some other places than /usr/local/mysql, then you
# have to do one of the following things for this script to work:
#
# - Run this script from within the MySQL installation directory

Yet this is incorrect as the script will not look in . and tries
/usr/local/mysql

Section 2.4.3 of the Online Manual Contradicts this:

"You might need to edit mysql.server if you have a binary distribution that
you've installed in a non-standard location."

Could someone with bitkeep access update mysql.server accordingly so that it
matches what is documented (in binary installs need to edit the file)

Many Thanks.
