When I try to start the server with the following options mysqld --chroot=/servers/mysql/ --user=mysql (options that are not relevant) I get an error [1] 379 Fatal error: Can't change to run as user 'mysql' ; Please check that the user exists! 030128 13:02:21 Aborting 030128 13:02:21 ./mysqld: Shutdown Complete
but when I start the server without --chroot option it works fine. I tryed to copy /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to /servers/mysql but it didn't work. How can I start server with chroot option?? I'm running MySQL 3.23.53 compiled from source (installed in /servers/mysql). --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
