Yep, that was it, along with what Mark said.

mysql doesn't  have permissions for this file.
It is probably owned by root, or its directory is.
InnoDB: See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html for installation help.
InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
InnoDB: the directory.
InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.

Anyone know what could be causing this?  I'm baffled.

Thanks,

MySQL Problems Due to Stupid Newbieness

2003-07-08 Thread Nick Boudreau
I've done a lot of stuff to try to get mySQL to work.  I'm running Mac 
OS 10.2.6 and Apache webserver.

First, I installed mySQL.  No problems there.  However, not knowing how 
everything worked, I used PHPmyAdmin to delete the root user.  Yes, I 
know, stupid.  Then, realizing my error with the help of a friend, I 
repeatedly tried to reinstall mySQL to get rid of those users.  Didn't 
work.  I tried uninstalling using an uninstall script from some site 
(entropy.ch or something) and it still didn't work when I reinstalled.  
I did not dump the database when I did it.  I kept getting some socket 
error and mysqld would not start up.  Finally, I deleted my mySQL user 
on my computer with hopes of replacing it... but I don't know how.

If anyone can help me, I would GREATLY appreciate it.  Here's the 
things I need in the order I need them:

1. How do I create the mySQL user on Mac OS X?
2. How can I delete all that stuff about root users and start anew?
3. What can I do about the socket error?
#3 may not be an issue once I fix the others.

Please consider helping a poor guy out.

Thanks,
Nick Boudreau
