>Description:
Firstly, I don't believe this is a bug, but I really can't figure it out.
I've installed MySQL through the Red Hat 8 distribution CDs. When I
run safe_mysqld, I have the following message:
[root@localhost bin]# safe_mysqld &
[1] 25488
[root@localhost bin]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from
/var/lib/mysql
021213 01:53:09 mysqld ended
I check the log file, /var/log/mysqld.log, and it says:
/usr/libexec/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13)
The log file changes each time I execute safe_mysqld, therefore I know
this is the log file it is using. I have run the mysql_install_db
script and it placed all of the default stuff (including host.frm) in
/var/lib/mysql/mysql/. The permissions are all checked for 'User' and I
am logged in as root. I've tried setting all the permissions completely
for everyone and tried copying all the default database files to
/var/lib/mysql/.
My my.cnf file contains the following:
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
skip-innodb
[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/var/lib
[safe_mysqld]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
I'm also certain this file is being read, since I had to add
skip-innodb, which was giving me another warning/error message.
Well, I'm pretty sure this is just something stupid I'm missing, but I
would really appreciate some help. I've been looking through the
manual, reading over the sections about trouble starting up several
times... No luck.
