 I have installed all of the RPMs for MYSql from the 7.3 distribution from
 the Next handbooks, but now need to get mysql started.
 As far as I can tell the manual only talks about binary (not RPM) and
 sourceinstallations. Is there a set of instructions on how to get mysql
 started and configured after installing from the RedHat 7.3 CDS?  If so
 where are they?

Just start it like any other service:

service mysqld start

(and use chkconfig mysqld on if you want it to start at boot)

 Do these files include Innodb support?

Yes.

 Are they sufficient to install mysql?

Yes.


You don't need the mysqlclient9 package, it's a compat library we ship
since the libmysqlclient library was bumped after the release of RHL 7
and we needed existing programs to continue working.

 We already successfully compiled MySQL with gcc 3.1 and have just started some 
 tests with gcc 3.2 - so far it looks good...

Gcc 3.2 does not work properly with mysql without a patch... we just
found a problem in the compiler which affected mysql -  C++
programs/libs could in the default -fuse-cxa-atexit mode have some
objects destroyed multiple times and some never. Look for changes to
decl.c (touching interface_only) in gcc CVS.

Not sure if this was a problem with 3.1 as well...  2.96RH should be
safer, at any rate, but doesn't have all the features from 3.2.

 Permissions are wrong.  MySQL typically runs as mysql:mysql, not
 root:root.  If I remember correctly, there may have been a problem
 with the setup scripts that handled this.  Check the RH bug reports.
 The fix is simply to change owner/groups on the necessary
 files/directories.
 
 But Trond can give you specifics.  It still may be user error. :)

If memory serves... There were some permission problems in RHL 7,
fixed in an errata a couple of days after release.

The most common problem for a while was people running
mysql_install_db as root - the dbs will be created, but owned by
root. The database doesn't run as root, and can't write to it.

There has been a workaround for that in the initscripts as well.

  There are known problems with gcc-2.96 which comes with RH 7.2

 There is much reading on the GCC 2.96 issue.
 There seems to be two paths of dicussion. I mention them
 here with all due respect.
 
 The first path is the one I subscribed too when I first
 got bit on the hindside by this. Basically, the gcc people
 forked 2.95.2 and it became 2.96. Only, it really wasn't
 2.96. The version number 2.96 wasn't actually a version
 number, rather, the _codename_ for the development branch.
 I found this whole statement ludicrous. At this point, I
 figured it was a huge GCC problem that RedHat got sucked
 into.
 
 That sorry excuse for an official statement can be found
 here:
 
 http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-2.96.html
 
 
 There is no official RedHat position that I can find. I did find
 this though:

http://www.bero.org/gcc296.html

does a good job of it, so we decided not to fuel more flamewars.

FWIW, reproducible testcases are good... all complex software products
have bugs (MySQL, gcc 2.95.x, gcc 2.96RH, gcc 3.0.x, egcs), often in
interaction with oneanother (e.g. timing/locking issues), so
reproducible testcases are a necessity.

You can download a newer edition from

Just download them and do a rpm -Fvh mysql*i386.rpm afterwards -

 Hi!
 
 The above problem is not caused by any changes in 3.23.50 source. It
 is caused by having glibc built statically with  binaries.

Static binaries are a bad idea, and should be reserved for special
cases only (recovery binaries, for instance).

Things like username and host lookup will suffer otherwise.

 Soo whats is the deal !!!
 
 Anyone who has the same problem  - feel free to contact me if you have a
 solution.

You're using mysql rpms from MySQL - use the ones from Red Hat, they
are known to work well.

You should also be able to copy over the ones from the Skipjack beta
and use them - they are the latest version (49a doesn't seem to be a
tarball release, it was made because the binaries were bad
AFAIK. Wasn't a problem for us).

 I find this rather unhelpful, as it really doesn't answer the question.
 I understand that as a RH representative, you stand by the decision to use
 gcc 2.96, but no matter how wonderful you think it is, the MySQL
 directions explicitly state not to use it, because Several of our users
 have reported random crashes and table corruption with MySQL binaries
 compiled with gcc 2.96 on the x86 Linux platform. 

None of these have been brought to our attention or documented. Note
that the official ones use a different, statically linked version of
glibc as well as a very old compiler.

  Has this issue been resolved?  If so, the directions should be
 updated.  If not, I question the helpfulness of advising people to
 ignore the directions.
 
 I have no interest in the arguments over whether 2.96 was a good idea or
 not, and I take you at your word when you tout the merits of 2.96, but
 that's not the question here.  The question is which compiler to use for
 *mysql*.  The list of people with stable copies of mysql compiled with gcc
 2.95.3 is long, and it includes people who had problems with copies
 compiled with 2.96.  Personally, I have no idea whether that's because of
 a flaw in gcc 2.96 or in mysql, but it's a moot point until it's found and
 fixed.  Has it been?

No issues in interaction between gcc 2.96RH and MySQL has been
identified since just after the release of Red Hat Linux 7 a year and
a half ago (we submitted fixes for these to the MySQL team, and they
have been included since the 3.23.midtwenties or so).

A generic issue with MySQL is that MySQL seems more stable when
compiled with -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions regardless of the compiler
version. The newest rpms at http://people.redhat.com/teg/mysql/ are
compiled that way, older ones aren't. Still haven't heard of any
issues or experience any myself.

FWIW, I've ran quite a few tests (the regression tests, the benchmarks
etc) with no stability problems whatsoever.

 Do you mean: You can forget upgrading on RH6.2 the glibc 2.1 to 2.2.
 Maybe one did it succesful, so now he has RH.6.2 with glibc 2.2.

Don't do it. You will do bad things to your system. If you want to
upgrade to a newer glibc, upgrade it all (newer versions of RHL has
mysql included, too :)

Re: Why v3.23.49 does not build on RedHat 6.2 ?????

2002-03-05 Thread Trond Eivind Glomsrød

Dr. Michael Wittmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 one solution could be to install a more recent compiler version and try
 to recompile again. be aware that actual rpm's will be created by rpm
 version 4, whereas redhat 6.2 has rpm version 3 installed which possibly
 cannot handle version-4-rpm's 

Everyone on RHL 6.2 should be running rpm v4 - if not, they are
extremely likely to have plenty of unpatched security holes.

 besides that, there may be glibc issues. redhat 6.2 has glibc 2.1.3
 installed. i don't know if actual gcc or mysql versions work ok if
 compiled against this 'old' glibc. afaik, redhat does _not_ recommend to
 update the glibc version installed...

I would definitely recommend against a major upgrade, e.g. to
2.2. Sizes and interfaces change, so that while old binaries will
continue working, anything compiled afterwards will get in a world of
pain.

  I had thought that if Mysql could create a 3GB file,

  This can get very confusing when Mysql uses these

  If your Index or database file approaches 2GB, and

 MySQL's limitation for file sizes on 32 bit systems is 1 Tb.
 
 All other limitations stem from filesystem limitations and MAX_ROWS
 limitations. 

Note that unrecommended usage of old compat compilers w/old compat
glibc (egcs+glibc 2.1) may lead to this not working properly. MySQL
needs to use current libraries with specified flags in order to use
the *64 functions.

Switching to 4.0 for stability doesn't seem like a good idea - it's
still in development, and classified as alpha. The 3.23 series has
been around a lot longer, and is stable.

 Hello!  I'm in the process of upgrading my Linux-server (currently a

 experience (good or bad) with a dual Athlon system with Linux running
 MySQL 3.23.x, and maybe Apache under HEAVY load?

Our kernel people love them - Athlon goodness, no VIA chipset. Good
performance, good stability.

 Since the Athlon MP's haven't been around for very long, I'm a bit
 concerned about the stability under heavy load on the 2.4 kernel...

Ve've supported it since RHL 7.1 (which was released before the Athlon
MP, if memory serves :).

 So please, if you have a success- or disaster-story I'd like to know!
 :) I'm also very interested in what mainboard you are using for the

No, I don't do it. If you stay with the stable version of MySQL, you avoid 
this problem. MySQL 4 will show up in Red Hat Linux (at least the 
development tree when it's declared the) stable branch, and applications 
will be recompiled.

 The Redhat packaging for MySQL calls it mysql (lowercase). MySQL AB's
 packaging calls it MySQL (upper/mixed case). The layout in each of those
 packages is quite different.

But that wasn't the problem.
 
 So version 3.23.41 (the one in RH 7.2) from Red Hat is quite different from
 the same version (3.23.41) from MySQL AB. So the development thing is a
 red herring.

No, it wasn't - the problem was libmysqlclient.so.10 vs 
libmysqlclient.so.11

 I did some searching and come to find out.  the file didn't exsist, but one

Which is not so.10, which is what the apps are linked against.

 Shouldn't it recognize this as a newer file and use it instead, or am I

Yes - this isn't how it works. You need to recompile all the apps, as

 Hi list,
 
 I have 2 servers 1 running redhat 7.2 and the other running suse 7.3.
 the hardware config is :
 
 RH7.2: Fast desktop (IDE HDD/128 MB memory PIII 550 MHz).
 Suse 7.3: Low end server (Ultra SCSI 2, PIII 850 MHz, 256 MB RAM).
 
 Now i expect to see the suse server go faster than RH, but i am 
 having the reverse happening. The RH server returns a query about
 5 times faster.
 
 For eg:
 on RH:
 
 mysql select straight_join docm.document_id, docm.document_title, 
 docm.document_date, sources.source_name, cliptypes.cliptype, byline.byline 
 from keywords, documents_7 as docm use index (PRIMARY), dockeys_7 as dock, 
 sources, cliptypes, byline where keywords.keyword_id=dock.keyword_id and 
 docm.document_id=dock.document_id and docm.document_source_id = 
 sources.source_id and docm.document_cliptype_id = cliptypes.cliptype_id and 
 docm.document_byline_id = byline.byline_id and ( keywords.keyword=assam ) 
 order by docm.document_id;

 This happens for all queries.

 Of course the data is the same on both systems. The mysqld is what comes
 with the distrib. (RH - mysql-3.23.22-6 / Suse - mysql-3.23.41-17).

That's not what we shipped in RHL 7.2 - that was 3.23.41-1

As for reasons for speed difference, it could be different kernels
with different options (the new VM in 2.4.10 and up was very suspect
for a long time, and still has some warts), different compilers (we
have a mature, stable and well performing compiler in 2.96RH - 2.95
was a bad release, 3.0 still has some warts). Our optimized glibc could
also make a difference if Suse doesn't have this. Different
filesystems could also mean a difference.

When I tested, ReiserFS did worse than the rest (ext3, xfs) for

Not good. If you had just started the script, it would have been done

(root owns them, the db runs as user mysql).

A chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql would fix it.

 Oh, I don't know how well that would work. But I do know you will still
 run into limitations of 2 GB, so if you had 2 drives raided then you now

 solution would be to re-compile your kernel to include large file support
 and tweak you MySQL for limit-less records.  That's what I do when I run
 into older distro's.

If you're running a 2.4 kernel (or some 2.2 kernels, like the one in Red Hat
Linux 6.2 enterprise), that's not an issue. You do need glibc 2.2,
though - and in many cases, you need to add preprocessor flags as
well.

(note that glibc 2.1, which is used if you use the old compat compiler
on Red Hat Linux 7.x, does not have full LFS support. I.e. compiling
with egcs considered harmful)

It's postgresql w/support, so the answer would be the same as regular

This means that it has things like foreign keys, stored procedures,

 A number of bugs, and they don't just affect MySQL - there is a number of

 mPlayer

That is known to be mplayer problems. Same problems in their assembly

 InterBase DBD driver

 There are more, I just can't remember right now. You will find that the 
 kernel, for example, is compiled using kgcc under RedHat v7.X. kgcc is an 
 older version of gcc (egcs, actually) that actually works. Try kgcc --version.
 
  RedHat 7.1 and RedHat 7.2 comes with gcc 2.96
 
 And 7.0. 7.2 Also ships with GCC-3.0, which is actually a production release 
 compiler, unlike the 2.96 version, which was a pre-release development 
 snapshot.

Uh...

gcc 2.96RH is production quality, and the standard compiler. Gcc 3.0
is known to be buggy, and not of production quality. It's not used for
anything, it's just a preview (it has more bugs, but it's also closer
to the C++ standard than gcc 2.96RH). 

 RedHat have been flamed repeatedly since the release of RH7 over 
 this.

By people not knowing what they're talking about. I'm not impressed by
idiots who have bugs in their code, won't receive patches and requires
you to type in untrue statements about the compiler (mplayer).

 Just download GCC-2.95.2.1 and the PGCC patches

pgcc? Now that's a known good compiler. Not.

 it. All we know is that strange things happen under load when MySQL is 
 compiled with 2.96, and they stop happening when the user switches to our 
 binary, which is compiled with 2.91

This changes prototypes and C libraries as well (it's a compat
compiler, for producing binaries running on RHL 6.2. It's not used for
anything else)

  We have an emergency. This is the first time we have ever had a

  myisamchk: error: 'journal.MYD' doesn't have a correct index

 This looks like hardware bug or linux kernel bug (there're some in older
 versions). MySQL, by itself, NEVER writes to .frm file (besides ALTER
 TABLE and CREATE TABLE). So, as you have .frm file corrupted, it was, most
 probably, not due to MySQL bug. I'd recommend you to upgrade to the
 latest linux kernel - especially, if your server is working under high
 load.

Make that the latest errata kernel. You'd want to be very careful
about 2.4.10 and up. There are, however, no known corruption problems
in existing 2.4.x kernels supported by Red Hat (flaky hardware
excepted) on supported configurations (i.e. no reiserfs).

You probably didn't start it the correct way, by using the included
initscript (/etc/init.d/mysqld, also usable by service mysqld
argument (start, stop etc)). This is also what would have been used
had you used tksysv, ntsysv or chkconfig to turn the service on.

If you use the mysql_install_db as root and then use safe_mysqld,
you'll try to run the database as user mysql - but root will own the
files. chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql should fix the problem.

 I think this may be my problem in that I couldn't understand whether
 mysql.sock should be located in /var/lib/mysql but is required to be
 in /tmp. It certainly appears in /var/lib/mysql I'll try your
 suggestion for this and check permissions.

As written before, it is a permissions problem - mysql_install_db
(unnecesarry , don't run it - just run service mysqld start ) will
create files owned by root.

If you look in the default /etc/my.cnf, the database runs as user
mysql (for security reasons). 

To fix it, do a chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql

If you had started mysql the same way you start other services (httpd,
samba, etc) via tksysv/ntsysv(permanently, on every boot) or service
httpd start (do it right now - equivalent to /etc/init.d/httpd
start), it would have created the database with correct permissions 
automatically. mysql_install_db and safe_mysqld aren't necesarry,
and will often cause problems.

That depends on what you install. MySQL isn't (like many other

select it in a custom install, or do a everything install.

 To the uninformed user like me who doesn't care to know the

It's not installed by default either, but if you select both the

You shouldn't have done mysql_install_db (which creates db files,
owned by root) and safe_mysqld (which will start the database as
user mysql, who can't read or write to the necesarry files).

Do a chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql, then start the database
with service mysqld start. If you had done this (or just selected it
to start in one of the runlevel managers, like ntsysv or tksysv), it
would have initialized the database automatically.

To make mysqld start on every boot, do chkconfig mysqld start.

They own the code, they can give it out under different licenses if
they like.

 In particular, contributions made to the GPL'd source code cannot be applied to
 the proprietary source code unless the contributor explicitly states that the

Which I'm pretty sure they're doing - no code accepted if it doesn't

 This reminds me of something like the emacs/xemacs split with the

That has nothing to do with licensing - different groups of developers

 You know better then me that 2.2.4 should NOT be built with gcc 3 !

Which was why I asked :) - 2.2.4 wants 2.96RH or 2.95.3 (2.95.2 should 
work on IA32, though)

 BTW, if I want to upgrade to new rpm version, what should I do.
 The RPM program will take care of upgrading itself?

If you get the new version of mysql in rpm format (eg. from Rawhide),
'rpm -Uvh mysql*rpm' should take care of it.

Shu Xiao [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Hi,
 
 I have problem starting MySQL on Redhat7.1. After installed Redhat7.1 which
 include MySQL rpm installation, I saw the file named mysqld under /etc/init.d .
 I set up symlink to it under /etc/rc3.d and etc/rc5.d. I intended to start
 MySQL while Linux booting. But I failed to start it. Checking
 /var/log/mysql.log
 I saw the follling:
 
 010813 21:03:15  mysqld started
 010813 21:03:15  /usr/libexec/mysqld: Can't find file:
 './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13)
 010813 21:03:15  mysqld ended
 
 And here is the configuration file
 
 /etc/my.cnf
 
 [mysqld]
 datadir=/var/lib/mysql
 socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
 
 [mysql.server]
 user=mysql
 basedir=/var/lib
 
 [safe_mysqld]
 err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
 pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
 
 I even manual run /etc/init.d/mysqld start and still got the same
 error. Anybody can point out what wrong here? I do see the host.frm
 under /var/lib/mysql/mysql. But why it always failed to find it?


For some reason (probably a manual mysql_install_db, which is bad
and unnecesarry), the database user don't have write access. 
chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql should solve the problem.

 Does anyone know how to do this sub select in MySQL.

MySQL doesn't have subselects. Some workarounds can be found at

PostgreSQL supports them.

If that is done, and mysql_install_db is run as root, I don't see that

You already made those files, and they're owned by root. You can't 
overwrite them that way.

Just do a chown before you start the database.
 
 How come when I type service mysqld start, Linux says command not found? I 
 could not find the command chkconfig either.

Both are not path of a user's path[1] - they're admin tools, and are for 
the use of root. Root can also control which services start with tksysv 
and ntsysv.

You're not supposed to. To start mysql, as any service, do 

service mysqld start

(which is equivalent to running the initscript like this
/etc/init.d/mysqld start). This will automatically initialize the
database the first time it runs. To make it start when your system
starts, do

chkconfig mysqld on

What you've done (and too many others, where do they get this idea?)
is that you've created the database files as root. Then you start the
database, which will run as mysql. This user can obviously not write
to root's files. Change the ownership manually, and try again - with
service mysqld start.

Re: MySQL with Redhat 7.1

2001-07-23 Thread Trond Eivind Glomsrød

[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I have installed Redhat Linux 7.1 with the supplied MySQL distribution
 (3.23.36?). I've run the mysql_install_db script, but when I try to start
 MySQL using ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql , from the installation directory,
 MySQL starts then ends immedately (MySQL ends) without an error!!

1) Don't run mysql_install_db or safe_mysqld directly - use service
   mysqld start, it will automatically initialize the database

2) When you run mysql_install_db, you create the files as root -
   later, you try to run the database as mysql. This user won't have
   access to your files.

To fix it, do chown -R mysql.mysql /var/lib/mysql. And you should
run mysql with service mysqld start in the future - or just enable
it by default, with chkconfig mysqld on

Re: Removal of MySQL

2001-07-22 Thread Trond Eivind Glomsrød

michael johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Is there a simple command one can give in Linux that will remove all
 trace of Mysql except the databases so that I can install from
 fresh? 

That is very dependent on how you installed it. If you used rpm, you
can just do rpm -e mysql mysql-server mysql-devel. If you just want
to reinstall another (or the same version), just do rpm -Uvh mysql*
with the new set of rpms - add --force if it's an older or the same
version you already have installed.

[1] (well, it likely won't succeed since the libraries are needed by
other applications you might have installed on your system. Remove
those applications as well if you want to remove any trace of
mysql on your system)
