Hi everyone! I'm trying to start a jailed mysql-max (snapshot 5.0) inside a chrooted environment, and is not working. I'm not using the --chroot parameter, because I want to get this implementation fully isolated to run another (stable) version in the same server, without getting in trouble. This environment is shared with a (running flawless) apache server. I followed all installation steps (twice) from the documentation and it's still doing the same. When it starts (within the jail):
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql it ends immediately, with the same error in the log: --------------------------------8<-------------------------------------- 041019 01:14:18 mysqld started 041019 1:14:18 Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission denied 041019 1:14:18 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /usr/local/mysql/data/mysql.sock ? 041019 1:14:18 Aborting 041019 1:14:18 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown complete 041019 01:14:18 mysqld ended ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Of course, there's no other mysql running yet (and I mean not running even in the real root environment), so I'm confusing about this error message. The file/dirs permissions are set like this: drwxr-xr-x 14 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 19 00:31 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 22639 Jul 27 09:22 COPYING -rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 8361 Jul 27 09:22 INSTALL-BINARY -rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 1937 Jul 27 08:14 README drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Oct 19 03:23 bin/ -rwxr-xr-x 1 mysql mysql 801 Jul 27 22:53 configure* drwxr-x--- 4 mysql mysql 4096 Oct 19 03:30 data/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 docs/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 include/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 lib/ drwxr-xr-x 3 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 man/ drwxr-xr-x 6 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 mysql-test/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 scripts/ drwxr-xr-x 3 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 share/ drwxr-xr-x 5 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 sql-bench/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 support-files/ drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Jul 27 22:53 tests I set the user/group as in the manual originally and it didn't run anyway, so I changed permissions of everything (all dirs and files from the installation) to mysql:mysql, set the --socket and --user params, and nothing. The environment permissions are set normally (for a jail), and the apache server is running without problems... I think there must be a permissions issue, but now I'm not sure... Any ideas will be highly appreciated. Thanks! Best Regards, Gustavo Castro. Senior System Administrator. G.C.P. Software.
