RE: Installing MySql 4.1
I had similar problem after incomplete removal MySQL 4.0.x which left dead service named MySQL that points to non-existing path c:\mysql. I changed the windows service name for MySQL 4.1 to MySQL41, and it works fine. Also you can try to execute mysqld from command line to see any extra details: mysqld --console --standalone -Original Message- From: Darrell and Lynda Adams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 4:34 PM To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: Installing MySql 4.1 Trying to install MySql 4.1 on XP using the automated installer. Have tried to install both the windows essentials and windows X86 . Tried doing typical and custom versions. Also used the Instance Configuration both detail and standard. When I get to the dialog box with the execute button I receive the following error message: Cannot create windows service for MySql. Error:0. Also went into services and tried to start and received the error message Could not start MySql service on local computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified.

Save your data in a safe place, we will later remove the MySQL data directory. Issue rpm -qa | grep -i mysql And see what are the packages with mysql in it. Remove everything that has relation to MySQL itself (but of course, not packages like postfix-sasl-mysql or mod_php_mysql, etc). Ignore dependencies. After that, clean your system: remove /var/lib/mysql and delete the mysql user: userdel mysql Again, don't forget to save your data! Then do a fresh install of MySQL.com's downloaded packages. Install it like that: rpm --install -v -h MySQL*4.1.4*rpm That should help. -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita This email is sponsored by Ensita.net http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ /Egor Egorov / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.net ___/ www.mysql.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Installing MySQL 4.1 from RPM on Fedora2
Start mysql on fc2 with /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start If that fails then look at the mysql error log.

Is there any other way that I might be able to install the shared RPM without using the '--nodeps' flag? Any ideas? Colin Lawrence I'd say the --nodeps issue is not worth the worry in this case. MySQL is a fairly low-dependency package - in fact, when I need to test something on a new box, to save time I just copy a statically linked mysqld and errmsg.sys -- that's all it *really* needs to run - the rest is just fluff to make it more pleasant to use. -- Sasha Pachev Create online surveys at http://www.surveyz.com/ -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
