Hi Jean-Michel,
I think I forgot one of the steps you suggested..here's output with the
"chkconfig--add mysql" before running "/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start"
[fran@flp fran]$ su
Password:
[root@flp fran]# chkconfig --add mysql
[root@flp fran]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
[root@flp fran]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
mysqld daemon ended
[root@flp fran]#
still had to control-c out of it to get prompt back after it reports mysql
daemon
ended.
Thanks,
Bambi
