Hi Saravanan,
   Thanks, once I added this to the my.cnf in the mysqld section it worked! 

Regards,
  Mark

 I have setup a mysql50 instance on a system where
 mysql4.0.20 already exists.
 So that I can run both instances together, I setup a new
 user called
 mysql50. The mysql50 files are owned by this mysql50 user
 and mysql50 is in
 the path. I setup a link, /usr/local/mysql-5.0 which points
 to the mysql50
 directory. I modifed the mysql.server and I put it in the
 mysql-5.0
 directory. Inside the file is a user parameter called user.
 I set the user
 to mysql50.
 
 When I run mysql.server -start, It exists with an error.
 The error log sayd
 that I do not have permissions to the ibdata files.
 However, the error.log
 gets created by the mysql user and NOT the mysql50 user. 
 
 So I think this script is trying to access the ibdata files
 in the
 mysql-4.0.20 folders and it cannot get to them since they
 are owned by mysql
 and not mysql-5.0.
 
 So I am kind of stuck at this point. My guess is somehwere
 else, both the
 user of mysql and the directory of mysql is set and since I
 am using
 different variables, it is not working.
 
 Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, it would be
 appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 Mark

Use my.cnf to point the data directory and the user details. 

[mysqld]
user=mysql50
datadir=/home/mysql50

Do your NIS users mount only their HOME directories from the NIS/MySQL server?
If so, obviously the /var partition on the MySQL server wouldn't be
available to them, right?

To confirm:
1. Log in as a NIS user
2. su to root
3. Check out ls -l /var/lib/mysql/

CentOS 4.3 - MySQL - NIS user issue

2006-08-31 Thread Tom Brown

Hi

I have what i think is a strange issue -

All my users are NIS users and they can access this box fine. I have a 
MySQL server running on this box that is running fine. The OS 'root' 
user can authenticate and use MySQL fine as this is not a NIS user e.g.


[EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql -u bugs -p bugs
Reading table information for completion of table and column names
You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 5 to server version: 3.23.58

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql

Yes i know thats an ancient MySQL version but this is an app 
requirement, dont get me started!


now when a NIS user tries to use the db

[EMAIL PROTECTED] su - bugzilla
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql -u bugs -p bugs
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket 
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)


any ideas why this is or what i can do to make it work?

Make sure that /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock is world-readable.  I doubt
this has anything to do with NIS.
