Sorry, but that is not the least bit helpful. We are not ready for RHEL 7, which is VERY different than prior versions. I don't really need the victim blaming for using an earlier RHEL release that is still fully supported and in widespread use.
As for /etc/my.cnf, that's where one defines the port, database location, log file, port number, and user, so they don't have to be placed on the command line. Your response does not explain the command line steps necessary for creating a new database. matthew -----Original Message----- From: Reindl Harald [mailto:h.rei...@thelounge.net] Sent: Friday, May 19, 2017 9:27 AM To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: Re: mysqld_multi Am 19.05.2017 um 18:19 schrieb Matthew Black: > I just installed MySQL Enterprise Edition 5.7 on RHEL 6.8 to replace an aging > 5.1 system running on RHEL 5.
