I post questions here coz I could not operate MySQL
well after I installed on RH9.0. Somehow, I found that
I may not follow the MySql reference manual and some
other books today.
I could not use the this commands:
/etc/init.d/mysqld start|stop|restart
There is no 'mysqld' within /etc/init.d at all. I
could not start mysql server within terminal.
Later, I found that there is 'mysql' within
/etc/init.d, and I tried command 'mysql start' within
/etc/init.d
output:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] init.d]# mysql start
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
I though I might need to re-install MySQL server at
that moment.
Solution I tried:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] init.d]# /etc/init.d/mysql start
It's ok now. I can turn MySql server on with this
command only under ROOT mode.
Questions1:
Is there anyone know why I must put /etc/init.d/
before 'mysql start' even though I was within that
directory already???
Answer:I just figured it out after read the manual
again. The mysql is the script file, changed name from
mysql.server script file. that's why I must add
directory name before it, or just simply do as
./mysql, it works within the /etc/init.d directory.
Thanks, guys, it seems that mySQL server is still
good, no need to re-install so far, I can turn it on
or off as I like with './mysql start|stop' within
/etc/init.d
Questions2:
I can turn on mysql under ROOT with that command
./mysql start within /etc/init.d. Somehow, there is no
error message output when I execute the same command
under user mode, but could not turn on the mysql
server. Why? I can not figure it out.
