>Description: I attempted to use the binary distribution available for the Tru64 5.1 OS that is available from the download site, but the mysql_install_db script crashes: Preparing db table Preparing host table Preparing user table Preparing func table Preparing tables_priv table Preparing columns_priv table Installing all prepared tables ./scripts/mysql_install_db: 107759 Bad system call - core dumped Installation of grant tables failed!
I thought it might be that my OS was slightly different, so I tried to build the source distribution using the simple flags shown below. The configure script completed and then I ran gnumake and gnumake install -- which both compiled without error. Again, when I run the mysql_install_db script it hangs up right at the same spot after the "Installing all prepared tables" output comment. This is the point in the script when it is supposed to insert data into the newly created mysql database. I then tried to run safe_mysqld --skip-grant-tables &. I can start the server and the client. I can create a database and a table, but when I try to insert data into that table, it hangs up. <precise description of the problem (multiple lines)> >How-To-Repeat: ./scripts/mysql_install_db >Fix: >Submitter-Id: <submitter ID> >Originator: >Organization: >MySQL support: [none | licence | email support | extended email support ] none >Synopsis: mysql_install_db script hangs up when inserting data >Severity: critical >Priority: high >Category: mysql >Class: support >Release: mysql-3.23.55 (Source distribution) >Environment: System: OSF1 gondolin.pha.jhu.edu V5.0 1094 alpha Machine: alpha Some paths: /usr/local/bin/perl /bin/make /usr/local/bin/gmake /bin/cc Compilation info: CC='cc -pthread' CFLAGS='-O2' CXX='cxx -pthread -O' CXXFLAGS='-O2' LDFLAGS='' LIBC: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 17 Dec 31 1995 /lib/libc.a -> ../ccs/lib/libc.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 17 Dec 31 1995 /usr/lib/libc.a -> ../ccs/lib/libc.a Configure command: ./configure '--prefix=/home/leslieh/bin' '--exec-prefix=/home/leslieh/bin' '--with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread -lmach -lexc -lc' 'CC=cc -pthread' 'CFLAGS=-O2' 'CXXFLAGS=-O2' 'CXX=cxx -pthread -O' Perl: This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for alpha-dec_osf --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
