Re: RPM Install appears to have failed

2002-10-03 Thread Praveen kumar

Hi,

Where is the Mysql-server version. you have installed
only client and mysql-max, but no mysql-server. Use
rpm -Uvh for your installations, so that you can
easily know the progress of installation.

Re: RPM Install appears to have failed

2002-10-03 Thread Chris Becker

Thanks Praveen,

So Max is not a server version, it sure is difficult to determine that on 
the download page:

MySQL database server  standard clients:
·   MySQL 3.23 -- Stable release (recommended) latest version is 3.23.52
·   ·   3.23 -- Default package (use this if you are unsure)
·   ·   3.23 Max -- Package with maximum features

Should I now download 3.23 (Default pkg) and run the rpm, how will this 
affect what happened on my server below? Is there a way to un-install the 
client and Max? Or should I just install 3.23 and all will be better?

Thanks again.

Chris

Re: RPM Install appears to have failed

2002-10-03 Thread John Coder

Max is a server.
your install directory out of an RPM should be /var/lib/mysql if you are
root su to root and see if it's there. It should tell you this in
/usr/share/doc/packages/Mysql
thwere's a manual there or it should be.

Re: RPM Install appears to have failed

2002-10-03 Thread Chris Becker


Your right - Max is a server, thank you.

Directories you listed do not exist. That rpm is all honked up. Is there an 
UN-install flag for rpm? I would like to cleanly reverse what was done w/ 
the rpm and install from the binary, is this possible?  The workaround 
provided below does not seem to be tested, before I cause any more damage I 
would like to clean the orig install up, if it even did anything... Thanks.

Found this thread:

Subject: MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm is missing many files.
From: alg
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2002 20:17:05 -0400

 Description:

   I'm trying to install MySQL MAX 3.23.52 (MySQL, with
   transactions enabled).  My rpm attempts goes like this...

   1. Check for installed MySQL...
[root@Zeke mysql]# rpm -q -a | fgrep -i mysql
[root@Zeke mysql]#

   2. Nothing, so I attempt an install...
   [root@Zeke mysql]# rpm -i MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm

   Giving mysqld a couple of seconds to restart
   var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34280: /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql: No such file or directory

   QUESTIONS
   1. Why is the mysql start/stop script missing?
   2. In addition, OTHER FILES are missing, as compared to the
  tar/gzip binary:
mysql-max-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686.tar.gz


   Thanks in advance.

   /AL


 How-To-Repeat:
 1.  Download the Intel Linux RPM file: MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm
 2.  su as root
 3.  rpm -i MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm
 4.  See the error
   /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql: No such file or directory

 Fix:
 BETTER FIX:
 1. Re-build the rpm file for MySQL-Max-3.23.52
 2. While you guys are at it, provide the rpm for the other
modules (ask RedHat for help on this, if necessary).

 If you want me to do some of the work, I'll volunteer the time.
 ... Just give me some RH linux box to login to. ... I have
 only 1 box at home, which I use to support my consulting
 clients, so I can't fool around with the box too much.

 WORKAROUND:
 1.  Install the RPM file, in spite of its problems:
 MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm

 2.  Install tar/gzip file:
 mysql-max-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686.tar.gz
 ...This way, other rpm files that depend on MySQL-Max-3.23.52-1
 won't have problems (assuming that they are properly installed).
