mysqld fails with permision denied (/var); runing as a user
>Description:
mysql configures for runing in user space; makes; and installs; tests
wor, but mysqld wont run
>How-To-Repeat:
I built mysql-4.1.14-nightly-20050808 from source, using
./configure
'--prefix=/usr/staff/tango/jc/src/fedora/mysql-4.1.14-nightly-20050808/local'
'--with-mysqld-user=jc'
then make
then make install
Then I initialize with
bin/mysql_install_db --datadir=local --user=jc
this responds with:
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd /usr/staff/tango/jc/src/fedora/mysql-4.1.14-nightly-20050808/local ;
/usr/staff/tango/jc/src/fedora/mysql-4.1.14-nightly-20050808/local/bin/mysqld_safe
&
This command fails with the following erros:
