Mysqld problem
I'm having a problem starting the mysqld. I'm running 3.23.51 on Mac OS X 10.1.5 and have a startup script which confirms on boot that it has started but doesn't. I've tried starting manually from the CLI but no luck. I looked in localhost.err and found: 030323 9:48:21 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Can't create/write to file '/usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/data/localhost.pid' (Errcode: 13) 030323 9:48:22 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13) 030323 9:48:22 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Error on delete of '/usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/data/localhost.pid' (Errcode: 13) 030323 09:48:22 mysqld ended According to the O'Reilly `MySQL Reference Manual' it seems that the daemon may have been damaged but offers no real clue as how to fix it. One other very odd aspect is that on OS X you create a mysql user in Sys Prefs and I noticed, upon reboot, that this user had disappeared from the pref panel. I re-created but to no avail. Any help at all on this would be gratefully appreciated.

MySQL on Mac OS X
I'm still trying to get MySQL running on Mac OS X and previously after installation when MySQL was running, I was getting 1045/6 errors and now, after a re-boot, MySQL is not running (I didn't add the start-up script because of the constant permissions errors I was getting). When I try to enter mysql I get: [localhost:~] phil% mysql -p Enter password: ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) Also when I try to start up (using ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql ) I get: 20512 00:13:18 mysqld restarted rm: /usr/local/mysql/data/localhost.pid: Permission denied ../bin/safe_mysqld: permission denied: /usr/local/mysql/data/localhost.err [235] tee: /usr/local/mysql/data/localhost.err: Permission denied ad infinitum (I eventually have to sudo kill -9 PID to stop it). I've added a ~/.my.cnf file (per instructions in the MySQL manaul) but that makes no difference. Could someone advise me on which file I have to edit to enable start up and use of MySQL (huge_cnf?)? Also, I'm using Marc Liyange's Entropy installation. Has anybody used his uninstall script and, if so, how safe was it (it looks like I may have to uninstall and start again)?

MySQL on Mac OS X
Hi. I've just installed MySQL 3.23.49 on Mac OS X.1.4. The installation went fine (into /usr/local/) but now I'm having what I believe is a common permission problem.

Having looked, I have no /usr/local/mysql/var. The installation instructions (from Marc Liyanage's excellent website) were as follows (in part): sudo chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql/* followed by: sudo ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql Also, how do I check the user/host table? Thanks for your help, Regards, Phil. On Monday, May 6, 2002, at 07:42 PM, Phil Dobbin wrote: Hi. I've just installed MySQL 3.23.49 on Mac OS X.1.4. The installation went fine (into /usr/local/) but now I'm having what I believe is a common permission problem. When trying to add a database I get the following error: [localhost:~] phil% mysql Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 12 to server version: 3.23.49-entropy.ch Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql create database CONTACT; ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'CONTACT' mysql I couldn't find anything in the archives so I wondered, could somebody let me know the workaround I need to do on the permissions to get me started? Any help appreciated.
