Has anyone successfully installed mysql-max-4.0.12 on OS X?
I've been trying for three days to set the root password and nothing I
try seems to work. I'm a total unix newbie but I did go out and buy a
Unix book and think I have enough of a feel for it to follow printed
directions. It seems to launch ok but when I try to create new
databases I get the following error:
mysql create test;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
use near 'test' at line 1
Not sure whether this is a problem, but running mysql show databases;
the terminal seems to hang. The absence of the mysql database seems
to be a bad thing as the documentation clearly states mysql database
is required because it describes user access privileges does this
indicate a fatal install error? Is there a way to roll this file by
hand?
Thanks
Seriously puzzled newbie
Any particular reason you are using max? Just use the normal version it runs
fine.
