Re: win start problem
Ok, I'm an idiot. I haddatadir = c:/_data/mysql/ when I should have had datadir = c:/_data/mysql/data/ I had some help though (I can't place all the blame on myself, ego issues ya know). I find this paragraph utterly confusing in MySQL Ref. Manual version 4.0.2-alpha See Node Windows prepare environment #- [mysqld] basedir=the_install_path #e.g. c:/mysql datadir=the_data_path #e.g. c:/mysql/data or d:/mydata/data If the data directory is other than the default c:\mysql\data, you must cut the whole \data\mysql directory and paste it on the your option new directory, e.g.: d:\mydata\mysql. #- And, many of the user comments listed here: http://www.mysql.com/doc/N/T/NT_start.html seem to indicate there were problems when trying to _install_ in a non-standard location. There _may_ be. But, it seems the datadir path is respected (works) fine (although I didn't try a path name with spaces) Miguel, Thanks again for your time. Thanks to your persistance I have MySQL installed with the data where I want it. :) -Ryan [Chop] I need to confess you, that until now I didn't have in my mind to use a directory name like __work. However I created the f:\__work dir (on my machine I have the Win2K on F:), cut/paste the whole directory \mysql\data to \__work and modified the my.ini for to have the datadir like: datadir=f:\__work\data (notice that you did c:\__work\data\mysql). With the changes above, I ran the server without any problem. Regards, Miguel I get the same error. Note: I did copy the c:\mysql\data tree (with all files to the non-standard location and modified the my.ini). Anyway, I went back to the original machine and got it working by pointing back to the standard c:\mysql\data dir for all files I don't like this but, it works Thanks Anyway For Your Response, -Ryan [Chop] - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

win start problem
Hi All, New to mysql. Running: Win2k as Administrator mysql-3.23.49-win.zip (binaries) Keep getting error (complete output below sig): mysqld: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist I've tried running each binary msqld version (mysqld, mysql-max). I haven't seen any solutions to this problem on the web (google) other than one person suggesting to someone with the same error that they didn't have privileges to write the table. And another saying they needed to re-run mysql_install_db ( I didn't get this with the binary dist.)

Re: win start problem
Hi Miguel, Yes, they are there. Already had the my.ini set up in c:\winnt since I needed to specify a non-standard location for my data files. (I used the medium conf. file included with the binaries as a starting point). UPDATE: I decided to try the install on a different Win2k machine slightly different build. It worked with files in standard location specified in a my.ini (c:\mysql\data). I added innodb support. Still worked. However, when I tried to change the data output to c:\__work\data\mysql... I get the same error. Note: I did copy the c:\mysql\data tree (with all files to the non-standard location and modified the my.ini). Anyway, I went back to the original machine and got it working by pointing back to the standard c:\mysql\data dir for all files I don't like this but, it works Thanks Anyway For Your Response, -Ryan On Mon, 4 Mar 2002, Miguel Angel Solorzano wrote: At 13:22 04/03/2002 -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!
