RE: Reinstallation HANG

2001-03-13 Thread Weber, Jeff

If I pull the hostname, I don't get 'myserver.com', but this server never
was called 'myserver.com' to begin with. 

The 'myserver.com' domain was expired for the last year or so, but I never
removed it from the DNS records until recently. So really, for the last
year, 'myserver.com' never refered to anything. I don't want to revert back
to the old DNS records, because there were other problems.

Do you think that the problem is somewhere else in the server config or is
it isolated to mysql? I don't have any other problems with software on this
box, which makes me think it's mysql.

when you enter the unix command
hostname

what do you get ?
This had better be resolvable with your DNS.

Maybe you forgot to fix your hostname when the domain was changed.

RE: Reinstallation HANG

2001-03-13 Thread Weber, Jeff

I've gathered more data on my problem here. We have recently made a few DNS
changes that I think have hosed mysql. See the error message below:

DBI->connect failed: Unknown MySQL Server Host 'myserver.com' (2) at
/home/httpd/test/stage2/cgi-bin/send_requests.cgi line 28
Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value at
/home/httpd/test/stage2/cgi-bin/send_requests.cgi line 32.

The 'myserver.com' is no longer a viable domain, so is there anything in the
installation or starting of mysql that needs this domain? I have the same
'hanging' error on start and stop of mysql. And if so, where can I change it
so it uses our new domain? Or do I have to do a complete reinstall with a
newly compiled 
installation app?

Thanks,

Jeff

You should have run
mysql_install_db --user=mysql

Now the database directory and all the files are probably owned by root,
and mysqld can't read the directory.

chown -R mysql /var/mysql/data

replacing "/var/mysql/data" with actual mysql database directory.

What is your swap size?  What is your drive space?  It sounds like you
need to upgrade to their latest.  Did you load all the updates on your 6.2
box?

Reinstallation HANG

2001-03-12 Thread Weber, Jeff

Mysql is hanging when started on my Linux box (Red Hat Linux release 6.2
(Zoot)
Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i686 -- mysqld, Version: 3.23.21), so I thought I
would reinstall mysql_install_db. This hangs too, see below...

[root@myserver mysql]# mysql_install_db
Creating func table
Creating tables_priv table
Creating columns_priv table

Server doesn't come back after this, I have to kill -9 to stop it. Anyone
have any idea why the install would hang this quickly?

Thanks,
Jeff
