I'm trying to install mysql 5.1 on OpenSolaris 2008.05. It doesn't appear that 5.1 is in the repositories (unless I'm missing something). So I did the following
pkg uninstall SUNWmysql5 pkg uninstall SUNWmysql-base Then I downloaded mysql-5.1.30-solaris10-x86_64.pkg from the mysql website and ran pkgadd -d mysql-5.1.30-solaris10-x86_64.pkg That seemed to work, but I don't have any mysql (files and directories yes, running services no). Do I have to set up startup scripts for it or something? Is there some better way to do this? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
