Hi all. Let me clarify my subject line. I *think* I actually got all the 'MySQL5 +server' files installed correctly using Darwin Ports. The problem is that I am not able to start my server. I think that 'my.cnf' may also be incorrect. Here's what's happening...
----- When I try to start the server ----------- [Claire:share/mysql5/mysql] chimi% sudo /opt/local/share/ mysql5/mysql/mysql.server start Password: /opt/local/share/mysql5/mysql/mysql.server: line 234: cd: /opt/ local/libexec/mysqld: No such file or directory Starting MySQL ERROR! Couldn't find MySQL manager or server [Claire:share/mysql5/mysql] chimi% ------------ my.cnf ----------- [mysqld] datadir=/opt/local/var/db/mysql5 socket=/tmp/mysql.sock port=3306 [mysql.server] user=mysql basedir=/opt/local/libexec/mysqld [client] socket=/opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysql -------------------------------- • First of all, I check to see if 'mysqld' existed in /opt/local/ libexec/ and it does, so I don't know why it can't find it. Any ideas? • Second what is wrong with my.cnf? I have searched the MySQL installation stuff and have not found anything that's useful. I have also searched archives on Darwin Ports and found some similar problems, but nothing that completely helps! Sorry for my *newbness*!
