I just installed MySQL from the mysql-3.23.58-1.i386 RPM on a vigrin Red Hat Enterprise server. According to the manual, mysql_install_db gets run automatically when you do this, but I don't know what to look for as evidence that this has happened.
If I try to run mysql_install_db by hand, I get the error: > Didn't find /usr/libexec/mysqld > You should do a 'make install' before executing this script There is no /etc/init.d/mysql and no mysqld_safe, so there seems to be no way to start the server: using "service mysql start" gives me "unrecognized service". What am I missing? ///Peter -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
