Install mysql server using RPM
Hi all, I am trying installing Mysql server using RPM bundle rpm -i MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64.rpm rpm -i MySQL-client-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64.rpm next i would like to start the server, i followed the mysql docs: The server RPM places data under the /var/lib/mysql directory. The RPM also creates a login account for a user named mysql (if one does not exist) to use for running the MySQL server, and creates the appropriate entries in /etc/init.d/ to start the server automatically at boot time. (This means that if you have performed a previous installation and have made changes to its startup script, you may want to make a copy of the script so that you do not lose it when you install a newer RPM. when i checked /var/lib i found non for mysql,Any idea?? Thank you very much in advance. Best Regards, Rabe

You may not need to install the -client package if the same goes for the RPMs. -- Unhappiness is discouraged and will be corrected with kitten pictures. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
