Hello, I tried installing MySQL on LynxOS, and it went fine. After installation I started mysqld and but was not able to communicate with it.
When I ran mysqladmin it reported the following arjuna# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin version /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query' arjuna# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin version /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query' Then I tried telnet to 3306 port on which mysqld was listening arjuna# telnet arjuna 3306 Trying 192.168.0.21 ... Connected to arjuna. Escape character is '^]'. , 4.0.15a-log>*VQtulA, Bad handshakeConnection closed by foreign host. arjuna# telnet arjuna 3306 Trying 192.168.0.21 ... Connected to arjuna.
