Greetings,

I'm trying to get the mysql database working. I had initially used the mysql binary installer for 4.0.18. The install went well enough, but then i didn't have enough permissions to create a new database nor to view the included 'mysql' database, though i could meddle in 'test'.

So i then used the fink installer for 4.0.17-11. The install reported no problems, but i am unable to start mysql:

PowerBook:/volumes/Fink 0.7.0 Installer portable$ /sw/bin/mysqld_safe &
[1] 6246
PowerBook:/volumes/Fink 0.7.0 Installer portable$ /sw/bin/mysqld_safe: line 94: test: too many arguments
touch: /sw/var/mysql/PowerBook.local.err: Permission denied

Have you read "fink info mysql", in particular where it says "All of these must be done as root."?
