My old 6.5.0 install works fine. Maybe that's the problem. Is the 6.5.1 script expecting to create directories? They're already all there based on having a 6.5.0 install, as is a full non-slimserver install of MySQL.
As for the permissions issue, all the /opt/slimserver or /usr/local/slimserver or the /var/cache/slimserver or the /var/log/slimserver directories/files are chowned to slimserver:slimserver. The user slimserver, however does not have a home directory. When I normally start slimserver, I use the /etc/init.d/slimserver start command -- which is run as root but then switches to the slimserver user using the --user parm in the script. The reason I was running ./slimserver.pl is to see the error output because running the /etc/init.d/slimserver start command displays nothing. I did a search on the forums and see that there are several other users that have had the same problem on the pre-release version of 6.5.1 since December. I do not see a resolution to their issues either and they stem from the same problem. I took a look at the MySQLHelper.pm script (where the error is happening) and don't see anything significantly different about 6.5.0 and 6.5.1 in there. I'm willing to provide more debugging information. I just need someone to specify more helpful info, so I can help debug. For example: What directory is it trying to create? Perhaps I can manually create it and set the correct permissions. Please try to help me.
