Hi
I am running RedHat 6.2 and notice that there
are serious problems running MySQL on it. There
are lots of posts on the email lists about the
the installation hanging at 'Installing all prepared tables'. Users
normally manage to do one install,
the db runs for a while, then it's impossible to
connect, and reinstall fails. Exactly my case.
(Tried everything except reinstalling the OS, but i guess MySQL would
stop working after a while even if i did that.)
I have tried installing 3.23.32 from RPMs and
from the binary and it's always the same problem.
This has not been resolved yet, has it?
It is a very serious issue for us. I have a machine still serving MySQL
db's on RH 6.2 and if it quietly stops working and refuses reinstall
then we have pretty big problems.
Perhaps people should be warned not to run MySQL on RH 6.2? Should the
user manual admit this problem?
It has been reported for more than 8 months without
any progress evident in the mailing lists.
I have spent days on the email archives, documentation, my system, all
to no avail.
Thanks in advance for any help/hints
David
p.s. for examples of systems reporting this, do a quick search on the
mysql.com site.
