Re: Mysql installation. Help!
What I did was beat my brains out on the same exact problem. In the end I have no clue what I did to get it actually working. I had re-installed the mysql from the .tar.gz, I installed all the RPM's several times. Everytime, I fully rebooted the system, and finally I have to run safe_mysqld --user=root I think finaly I ran the tar -zxvf on the mysqlmax.version.tar.gz, rebooted the system, then re-ran safe_mysqld --user=root.

Re: databases under users dir
I am glad you asked that. I think for my application, I am going to set up a blank set of tables in the database, and as a new user subscribes, simply move the blank database into their personal directory, that way I can keep all of their data segregated from other users. It may take addition physical disk space, but it would simplify my management dramatically. Thank you for that question.

I am running RH7.2 and have virtualhosts under apache 1.3.22 so i am hoping i can put databases under each user account in order to control (quota's) etc. You can put them under each users homedir and symlink to them. I've used that method a couple of times where I had some pretty large tables taking up too much space on a particular partition. Remember to shut down mysql before moving the databases and remember to preserve ownership and rights to the files. :wq file://andreas http://phpwizard.dk (in Danish only) - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

Re: mysql on Linux
I know in at least 2 e-mails I did indeed mention that I executed safe_mysqld -u root, So I did it using your syntax, safe_mysqld --user=root, I had the same text returned which again said the following. Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 020305 17:46:10 mysqld ended I presume that means that mysqld ended Basically the mysql started then abruptly stopped. Again the error in the ONLY error log linux.err said the exact same text that was displayed on my screen, making that no help. There is no mysql.sock on my system because the server is not running, anyone have any REAL ideas? The documentation is of NO help whatsoever and I am getting very frustrated with it.

Re: MySQL Backup and Recovery
Having worked with Oracle, and MS SQL databases, the only backup/recovery I usually deal with after the admins have their dumpdb run to a secondary transaction database is tape backup of some form. Most of the sites I have worked with however use 3 disk mirrors, and disk cloning, and disk snapshots every so often as their needs demand. The key they find is the brief database lock, and the quiessing of the databases just prior to the spanshot or breaking off of the clone allowing for the backup with nor performance degradation of their active database. I don;t know your budjet or application or even if I am making any sense, but this is how we have been working the issue of backups of databases.

Run the following command on the command line to make sure: ps awx | grep mysqld You should see one line with safe_mysqld in it, and at least a few lines with mysqld in them. If not, you need to start the server. Once the server is running, if you have superuser privileges on your system, you can run: updatedb This will take a few seconds and re-index all the files on your system, so you can run: locate mysql.sock to find out where the server is creating the socket. This command should give you the path to the mysql.sock file. Once you have that, look in your my.cnf file for lines like: [client] port= 3306 socket= /path/to/mysql.sock [mysqld] port= 3306 socket= /path/to/mysql.sock The socket variable is where MySQL *thinks* your mysql.sock should be -- not necessarily where it is. Change these lines to match the path returned by the locate command and things should work. If you don't have superuser access and you can't run updatedb, the most likely places for mysql.sock are your installation directory (where the data files are stored), and: /var/tmp/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock At least on RedHat -- I'm not sure about SUSE, but it's worth a look. Check these places and see if it exists. If you find it, update your my.cnf file with the correct path.
