The file /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable

2003-07-02 Thread Song.Xu
Hi,

I got the following message when trying to start the mysql instance:

$ mysqld_safe 
[1] 22717
$ The file /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable
Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart
this script from there as follows:
./bin/mysqld_safe.
---

Can anyone help me to resolve this? It is emergency.

Regards,
song

Todd,

It didn't help. Here is the message:

$ cd /usr/local/mysql
$ ./bin/mysqld_safe
The file /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable
Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart
this script from there as follows:
./bin/mysqld_safe.

It worked fine until yesterday. SA told me he had rebuilt /user/local
directory
this morning. All the files are still there after the build. Actually I have
two versions of mysql. I would like to start mysqld using different version
of
mysql that I installed in a different location. I wonder where the path
'/usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld' stored in the system. Can we change this
path
somewhere in the parameter file?

Thanks,
song

Do what it says:

cd /usr/local/mysql
./bin/mysqld_safe

and see if that's any better.
