Decided to give mysql55 a go. Switching from mysql5 Everything appeared to work just fine with the build.
deactivated mysql5 and mysql5-server (forced due to some dependencies) installed mysql55 and mysql55-server port select mysql mysql55 mysql won't start due to the following problems, both stemming from my.cnf defaults that worked previously [mysqld] pid_file=/var/mysql If this line is included mysql fails to start complaining that /var/mysql is a directory, which is a true statement. If I comment out, or make 'pid_file=' then the pid file is created in the data directory. That's OK, I guess. I don't know why it stopped working. [mysqld] federated If this line is included (to enable the FEDERATED engine) mysql fails to start complaining about 'unknown option --federated' If I comment it out, mysql starts. How do I enable the FEDERATED engine in this case? Something missing in the build that allows it? After getting mysqld to start I did sudo port load mysql55-server Should 'port select mysql mysql55' or 'port select mysql-server mysql55-server' make the commands port load mysql-server choose the proper engine to start? or should I just deal with unloading/loading the server specifically? 8) ---------------------------------- Chris Janton - face at CentosPrime dot COM Netminder for Opus1.COM _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
