How to start MySQL in Solaris8

Hi all,

I just downloaded MySQL package from SUN website and installed it on my unix
machine which runs Solaris8.  How do I start MySQL in Solaris8?  If I need
to create a new account to start it then how do I create a new account?

Datatype for comment field

2001-03-07 Thread Nguyen, David M 

I try to create a new table and setup a datatype for comment column that has
about 7000 characters long.  How do I define it in Oracle?

**Here's my SQL and the error I got.

SQL create table test
 (comment   varchar(7000));

ERROR --- Character field too long


Thanks,
David
