I have had some help on my mysql install woes, and here's the latest. rpm -qa | grep MySQL - this just hung and never returned anything (see below) # service mysqld start or # service mysql start - these just returned a new command prompt, so couldn't tell whether or not they worked. I checked my processes and never saw mysqld.
I put in 'whereis mysql', and this returned: /usr/bin/mysql /user/lib/mysql /user/share/mysql /user/share/man/man1/mysql.1.gz I was going to output a new list of installed packages to ensure that mysql was in there, but rpm -qa | ./installed_packages doesn't seem to work at the moment...I can't restart the server right now, so perhaps I could kill and restart some process? However, this is from yesterday's output: postgresql-libs-7.3.4-3.rhl9 postgresql-7.3.4-3.rhl9 mysql-3.23.58-1.9 mysql-server-3.23.58-1.9 postgresql-server-7.3.4-3.rhl9 Thanks, Eve -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
