I tried to install binary mysql 4.0.20 on MacOS 1.2.8 Jaguar The installer works but if I try to use the result I get messages including:
defaults undefined reference to _stpcpy expected to be defined in /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib As Marc Liyanaage http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/mysql/ writes in his FAQs > Why do I get messages like > undefined reference to _BC expected to be defined in /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib > when I try to use mysql? > >You installed the wrong MySQL package (the one I made for Mac OS X 10.1) on a >machine running Mac OS X 10.2 (or you never updated MySQL after updating to Mac OS X >10.2). it may be that 4.0.20 has similar problems (not for 10.2.8?) Thus I removed 4.0.20 and tried 4.1.3beta (earlier I hesitated to install a beta) This worked. MySQL server is run via a mysql user who was created by NetInfo manager according to http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/osdb.html I am able to access the MySQL server on the terminal/command-line with full root privileges (Actually also as a second user with the same privileges). If I try to connect with CocoaMySQL it does not allow me to enter as root after I added a password to root (both on localhost and my numeric internet address. >Unable to connect to host localhost. >Be sure that the address is correct and that you have the necessary privileges. As long as root had no password I was able to enter with all privileges). Neither localhost nor my actual Internet number works. I may still enter as mysql (no or empty password) with minimal privileges. Even accessing localhost without username works thus. Probably I am missing some basic setting? What is the correct way to set up a user/pw for beeing acceptable for CocoaMySQL. Have I to change soccks,portal...? I do not assume this is a beta problem.
