Recently, I've been trying to install MySQL on a redhat 7.2 system. I am
trying to do so from source. Everything seems to go well untill I have
to change the root password. Basicly the following happens:
Installing all prepared tables
010518 10:22:02 /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server
to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
This is done with:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h stupidsiteforjerks.com -p
password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.
NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run
the /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will
not be
able to use the new GRANT command!
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd /usr/local/mysql ; /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld &
You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench'
directory:
cd sql-bench ; run-all-tests
Please report any problems with the /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqlbug script!

[root@stupidsiteforjerks mysql-3.23.38]# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin
-u
root -p password 'new-password'
Enter password:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock'
(2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock'
exists!
Anybody have any ideas?
