I tried this a few days ago. After the install I can't start mysql, it
says, Can't connect to local MySQL server throuh socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
(111)
Wrong answer. You need to check the database directory for the error
(*.err log) read the last few lines and learn why "Can't connect..." and
fix the problem...
Is the database directory configured in my.cnf and the start script(i.e.
/usr/local/share/mysq/mysql.server) (which both most be the same by the
way :o) owned by mysql:mysql? That's often a mistake newbies make. Anyway,
read the error log and mysql will tell you why start failed.
Don't kid yourself. There is no black magic in these binaries. They
install for hundreds of thousands of users like me who just did one eight
minutes ago and it works like a charm. In other words, mysql really does
work: count on it to be that way; and assume there is something you have
missed or have done incorrectly and fix that. That's your new paradigm
wherein things work. Lesson over. :o)
best..

I saw that. That upgrade will resolve the dbmail build with mysql
but...
When I upgrade to MySQL 5.0.18 the Postfix build with mysql can't
complete because it can't find libsqlclient.so.14. (I spent a few hours
trying to resolve the libsqlclient.so.14. before going back to MySQL
4.0.16)
I'm using Fedora Core 4.

Hey Jim:
Here's 'howto' on a fresh from MySQL AB binaries pkg that you should be
able to install yourself.
MySQL client is where your problem begins so far. Nothing to do with
mail yet... not really a thing of this list but... Get MySQL installed
and working to the point of being able to do command line queries:
>mysql and then in mysql "show databases" and seeing "mysql" "test" as
the databases.
You have conflicted MySQL client issues; linker problems; dependency
issues and who knows what else... I suggest you remove all the old mysql
clients you currently have installed. If you can't, unlink them. You
seem to have a range. Cleaning up the mysql server and clients and
installing a current MySQL 4.1.18 is a worthwhile start.
I take it you are back to using MySQL 4.0.16. That's just barely OK . If
you get it working::live with it. But I think if all your responders on
this list are about to be Dads/Moms to this installation, this child
needs to have a predictably good future. :o)
Use MySQL 4.1 to ensure scalability, upgradeability and ease your
headaches. I know nothing about your Fedora Core 4 build but wonder if
its possible to remove the MySQL RPMs and install a binary package
direct from MySQL. Here's how:
See: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html
Give them (MySQL AB) a read and see if you think this is for you. This
is MySQL from the horses mouth. :o)
They have non-RPM already-compiled binaries which you can install on
your own using your native shell tools. Simple stuff.
I think you will end up with a /usr/local/mysql installation
Is this you: Linux, Intel C/C++ compiled, glibc-2.3
Sound about right?
Do something like this:
1) You need to get all the old stuff out of there so try uninstalling
all the mysql and mysql clients you have on your system. Restart your
system to clear any linkers or package thingies or whatever.
2) Install a nice clean MySQL 4.1.18
mkdir /usr/install
cd /usr/install
wget http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.1.html
gunzip mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz
tar xvf mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz.tar
cd mysql-standard-4.1.18-pc-linux-gnu-i686-icc-glibc23.tar.gz
./configure
make
make install
(You can watch each step for troubles -- hopefully none.)
good luck...
Mike

MySQL is running fine at this point and I get the same error message when
running 'make install' for dbmail.
Its the same error I had been getting from the RPM install.
/usr/bin/install : cannot stat '.libs/libmysqldbmail.lai' : No such file or
directory
make[2]: ***[install-pkglibLTLIBRARIES] Error 1
make[2]:Leaving Directory '/usr/opt/dbmail/mysql'
make[1]: ***[install-am] Error 2

make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

After download Yumex to manage package removal/reinstall I cleaned up a lot
of MySQL problems. I am now getting a similar error as above for this file,
.libs/libauthdbmail.lai
In what MySQL package/file is dbmail looking for this file?
