Asking again... please help me!!!

2003-12-09 Thread Lost Idols
I did ask this before, but haven't got any help yet.
I'm trying this again... so please let me know if you know.
Setting up MySQL and PHP on my Mac OS X 10.2
Just made it work... well, at least I now have a databse
that I created and a table with two things inserted.
I can also see them when I do a SELECT...
So, since I know it's working, I started my DW MX
to try to work from there, but I just get an error.
I've been setting up the database with all the info
and when I want to select from the list of databases
I just get the following message:
 HTTP Error Code 404 File Not Found.
 Here are some possible reasons for the problem:
 1) There is no testing server running on the server machine.

What's wrong? Any clues here in this list?

Staffan

PS. I'm a newbie, so please write in newbie language ;-)

?? .tcshrc On OS X ??

2003-12-08 Thread Lost Idols
I had tips from some people here to install the complete MySQL from Server 
Logistics
on my Mac OS X 10.2 and so I did (I also installed Apache 2 and PHP from 
them).
Now I'm on Step one, but got stuck here. (I always get stuck while trying 
this MySQL).

In the pdf-file that came along with the installation it says:

shell echo $SHELL
This will return the path to the shell you are using. In most cases it will 
return
either /bin/tcsh (tcsh shell) or /bin/bash (bash shell). If you are 
using the tcsh
shell, you will have to modify the file .tcshrc located within your home
directory. If this file does not exist, then you will have to create a new 
one. After
opening the file in your text editor, add the following line at the bottom 
of the
file:
setenv PATH $PATH:/Library/MySQL/bin
Save the file.

But when I try to find this .tcshrc file (whisch is the one showing up when 
I write
that line in my Terminal. I can't find it (not by using Sherlock or when 
looking).
I guess it should be in MyComputer / Library / MySQL / bin. But it isn't.
So I wrote the line they explain in the end of the text above and try to 
save it as
.tcshrc, but my computer tells me I can't use a name with a dot in the 
beginning.
So I tried to take that away and then drop the file from the desktop to the 
bin folder,
but then it tells m I'm not allowed to change that folder?!

What am I supposed to do??? I'm really a newbie here... and it seems I'll 
always be...
I've tried this sooo many times the last week now. I'm about to give up 
soon.

:-(

MAC OS X installation problem

2003-12-05 Thread Lost Idols
A newbie here, with a simple question (I guess).

I just installed MySQL on my OS X 10.2
But failed pretty quick. Please help me... I wanna get started.
This it what it looks like after following the description in the ReadMe 
file.

Last login: Fri Dec  5 22:41:28 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
[COVERMAN:~] staffan% sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQL/MySQL start
Starting MySQL database server
[COVERMAN:~] staffan% /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket 
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
[COVERMAN:~] staffan%

I'm on a Mac with different users able to login and also a swedish os (if 
that could be a problem?).

What is code and what's not?

2003-12-05 Thread Lost Idols
I found a script on this help page, that should be used when
giving the root user a password, but I really don't understand
what of this is words and what is just an example.
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root password password
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h `hostname` password password
Where in this script am I supposed to write my password and where is the 
word supposed
to acctually be written as the word password?
And what about hostname? Is that a command or should I write the host name 
of my computer?
Since I'm a newbie it's hard to understand.
Can someone please mark this for me?

Is this the right way?

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root password xyxyxyxy
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h `this_is_me` password xyxyxyxy
Weird question maybe... but I guess I'm not the only one here.
It would've been easier with underscored or different colours here... I 
guess ;-)

How to find my directory?

2003-12-05 Thread Lost Idols
I've read a lot of tips (even if I'm not up and running yet) about
telling people to setup the correct way to their mysql directory.
So, what I wanna know (when I get there) is if there is any
command that I can write to make the computer tell where
this files actually are?
