I installed MySQL4.0 source on my redhat7.2 linux server it compiled and make intall fine with no problems execpt that i chose to install it in /databases/mysql/ rather than /usr/local/mysql/ so i did this by typing this instead ./configure --prefix=/database/mysql rather than ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
My problem is, when it was done building and installing, 5 directories were not in the /database/mysql directory but they were in the untared and ungziped directory: the directories are the following scripts,include,support-files,tests,and var. I had to manually copy and paste the directories into the /database/mysql directory. When I executed scripts/mysql_install_db, it ran but the mysql directory was missing mysql/data directory and so was the untared and ungzipped directory basically it was nowhere. Is there something im missing.
