Ah, oki, if you are not root, it is ok, just change the socket= /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock pid-file= /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid to places where you got write permissions (in your my.cnf file). I'm not very sure, but maybe you must recompile your source with a parameter that sets the config directory too (else it tries to look somewhere in /etc, where you surely got no permissions), maybe it is best to set --prefix=/usr/home/mysql which might be sufficient (it is, if after compiling there is a directory where my.cnf resides) Greetings Ralf sql query -- Ralf Narozny SPLENDID Internet GmbH Co KG Skandinaviendamm 212, 24109 Kiel, Germany fon: +49 431 660 97 0, fax: +49 431 660 97 20 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.splendid.de - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

RE: Facing some problem in installation
If you are NOT installing as root, you are trying to create mysql.sock in an area where you don't have write permission. what is the --prefix you supplied to ./configure ? -Original Message- From: Manisha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 12:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Facing some problem in installation I am trying to install the mySQL on our remote server thr putty (SSH).
