RE: having trouble killing mysqld to restart and change root
Amendment to that last post I don't think the daemon is starting properly, because I can't run a mysqladmin version - I just get a hung cursor. Does anyone know if there's something that would be stopping mysqld from loading with the --skip-grant-tables option? When I do a ps I can see that it's definitely been started, but the fact that I can't do anything with mysqladmin makes me think that it hasn't loaded the way it needs to. JP Ye, that did the trick. I was able to get the daemon restarted using the --skip-grant-tables option, however now I can't connect to the monitor. Typing in /usr/bin/mysql I just get a hung cursor. Same if I try using /usr/bin/mysql -h hostname mysql Anyone know why I can't get the monitor started?

monitor will not start
Hi All, Does anyone know if a hard disk that is mostly full will stop the mysql monitor from starting? When I try to start it up all I get is a hung cursor, and I'm sure that the daemon has been properly started. MySQL isn't logging disk full errors to the .err file, so it seems like maybe that's not the problem (unless the monitor has different disk space needs than the tables). Are there any other reasons why the monitor won't start? I can't get mysqladmin to function properly either (same problem - hung cursor after entering the password).

need developer to help transfer our site
Hello, We have a site that uses PHP and MySQL on Linux, and we need to get it moved from our own server to a professionally hosted server. Unfortunately no one in our organization has enough Linux and MySQL knowledge to make this happen, so we're looking to hire an experienced developer for this project. The site is not very big, and our new host is already in place, so it should be mostly a matter of transferring files. If anyone on this list is interested in our meager project please reply to me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks, JP - 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?
