Hi, Your error message khanstation# scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql Installing all prepared tables ld.so.1: ./bin/mysqld: fatal: libz.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory <----------------------------------------------------------
means you don't have zlib installed or you don't have it in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You can put in into your default path by using the crle command (man crle) and you can get this from http://www.sunfreeware.com if you don't have it installed. I notice you had --with-named-z-libs=no, try taking this out and letting ./configure find out where the z libraries are. The definition for this option is : --with-named-z-libs=ARG Use specified zlib libraries instead of those automatically found by configure. and it is probably looking for a path called "no". If you need to disable it, then try using --without-named-z-libs (I may be wrong here but that is my reading of the configure --help screen) or leave it out altogether.
