os X install mySQL help
This is a mac os X installation problem: When I download/install the pkg version of mysql 4.0.13, two directories seem to be missing in /usr/local/bin/mysql: var/ and run/. So, when I try to run mysqld_safe (or safe_mysqld), I get errors like: touch: /usr/local/mysql/var/myhostname.err: No such file or directory Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/var... followed by alot more errors which basically say, you don't have a var/ directory or a run/ directory. Is this addressed anywhere in the manual? If I run sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe, I get the mysqld ended error, and this is what my .err file says about it: Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: No such file or directory 030605 10:59:08 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /usr/local/mysql/run/mysql_socket ? 030605 10:59:08 Aborting what's going on here, I've been trying to install this for 10 hours??? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Go to the /usr/local/mysql directory and rename (mv) data to var. -- Jim Dickenson mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Computers for Marketing Corporation http://www.cfmc.com/ From: gerald jones - Sun Microsystems - Broomfield United States [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: gerald jones - Sun Microsystems - Broomfield United States [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2003 13:18:29 -0600 (MDT) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: os X install mySQL help This is a mac os X installation problem: When I download/install the pkg version of mysql 4.0.13, two directories seem to be missing in /usr/local/bin/mysql: var/ and run/.
