Dear people I have a problem installing under Solaris. I've downloaded a compiled mysql, installed under /usr/local, create mysql group and mysql user, the owner of mysql/data is the group mysql and everything looks well. But when I try:
bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql The mysql starts and inmediatly ends. Looking the log file I can see that it says: 020621 20:49:05 mysqld started 020621 20:49:05 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Can't create/write to file '/usr/l ocal/mysql/data/bdu.pid' (Errcode: 13) 020621 20:49:05 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm ' (errno: 13) 020621 20:49:05 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Error on delete of '/usr/local/mys ql/data/bdu.pid' (Errcode: 13) 020621 20:49:05 mysqld ended it looks like has no rights to write the file, isnīt it. I tried to use scripts/mysql_install_db but It says that could not find mysqld and I 've seen that my.cnf does not exists. Is there a way to put it working or must I download source code and compile it from scratch? Thanks a lot in advance Emiliano H.Marmonti --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
