RE: What mysql 5.0 binary relase use for CentOS 4.4 Pentium?
Finally I have an erroneous /etc/hosts file. But aside from that what of the realeses is best suited for a CentOS 4.4 Double Pentium III 1.0 Ghz? * Linux (x86, glibc-2.2, standard is static, gcc): mysql-standard-5.0.24a-linux-i686.tar.gz * Linux (x86): mysql-standard-5.0.24a-linux-i686-glibc23.tar.gz The first is compiled statically with glibc-2.2 and the second is compiled dinamically against glibc-2.3. CentOS 4.4 uses glibc-2.3. Then which is the best suited? For update is more easier using rpm relases but If I want to downgrade to the previous version I only have to change the symbolic link mysql in /usr/local/mysql to the directory of the previous version if I use binary instead of rpm releases. That works because I use another director for data thant /usr/local/mysql/data. Could I do these with rpm? -Mensaje original- De: Chris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: viernes, 22 de septiembre de 2006 2:19 Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: MySql Mail List Asunto: Re: What mysql 5.0 binary relase use for CentOS 4.4 Pentium?

The downside is that you cannot use hostnames in the grant tables: except for localhost, you must use IP numbers instead. If you are using an old version of MySQL that does not support --force, you must manually remove the resolveip test in mysql_install using a text editor.

They are much easier to deal with when it comes time to upgrade. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, If you get Sorry, the host '' could not be looked up error message when you run mysql_install_db, or if you get the getpwnam: No such file or directory error message while running mysqld with --user option, Then try any of these solutions: a.. Get a MySQL source distribution either an RPM or the tar.gz distribution and install this instead. b.. Execute mysql_install_db --force; This will not execute the resolveip test in mysql_install_db. The downside is that you can't use host names in the grant tables; you must use IP numbers instead of host names except for localhost. If you are using an old MySQL release that doesn't support --force, you have to remove the resolveip test in mysql_install with an editor. c.. Start mysqld with su instead of using --user.

Sorry, the host '' could not be looked up Aside from not could use hostnames what from these releases is best for me? Iago.
