Re: User Issue
Hi Saravanan, Thanks, once I added this to the my.cnf in the mysqld section it worked! Regards, Mark saravanan-5 wrote: Use my.cnf to point the data directory and the user details.

So that I can run both instances together, I setup a new user called mysql50. The mysql50 files are owned by this mysql50 user and mysql50 is in the path. I setup a link, /usr/local/mysql-5.0 which points to the mysql50 directory. I modifed the mysql.server and I put it in the mysql-5.0 directory. Inside the file is a user parameter called user. I set the user to mysql50. When I run mysql.server -start, It exists with an error. The error log sayd that I do not have permissions to the ibdata files. However, the error.log gets created by the mysql user and NOT the mysql50 user.

Re: Starting a 2nd MySQL instance on UNIX
Hi Ian, Thanks for the reply. I was specifying the new port of 3307. I actually got it working over the weekend. Turns out I had to add a few entries in the mysqld section of the my.cnf file and I was able to connect. Regards, Mark Ian Simpson wrote: Mark, When you try to log-in to the new instance, are you specifying the new port number to the client? If you don't give it the new port number, then it will connect to the default port, which is presumably your 4.0.20 instance.

mysql_install_db
I have a question on this script. When you run this, does this create the mysql and information_schema databases? I ran this in MySQL 5.0 on a Solaris box and it only created the information_schema database. I see a data/mysql folder and it put files under that but somehow it must not have created the mysql database properly. I set the basedir and datadir in the script however when I ran it I had some issues with the my.cnf at that time so maybe it did not work properly becasue of that. I see it on my windows installation but that was after I imported my dump from Bugzilla so not sure if that created the mysql database or not (don't think so). Anyway if someone could let me know what this script creates, that would help me a lot. Thanks!!
