Assuming intel and putting the CD in /dev/cdrom as root... On Redhat 7.3... (Install whatever way you want first)
Put in CD#3 (label is Red_Hat_Linux_i3) mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS rpm -Uvh mysql* chkconfig mysqld on /etc/init.d/mysqld start MySQL 3.23.49 should now be running. This is from memory.. so forgive an typos. The data directory and such are defined in /etc/my.cnf. By default RH makes the data directory /var/lib/mysql. The socket reference will be in that directory also. You can easily change the data to a volume you can backup/grow. I would suggest leaving the socket reference as it seems to be "static" in the rpm build. You can always check me on that by install the source RPM (which will put the distr in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES) and recompiling.

Redhat (at least 7.3) comes with MySQL. If select the default install for server, it will NOT install MySQL. You must check the box to Select individual packages, and check off the MySQL binaries. Of course, you can always install them After the installation from the CD's but you might have to work out a few dependancies, especially if you are linking to a websever with php or perl.

I wasn't aware of this. I thought the Red Hat database was PostgreSQL. --Walt Weaver Bozeman, Montana -----Original Message----- From: john greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 19, 2002 2:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mysql comes with linux ? red hat linux implementations by default would have the mysql database ? ie if i install the server version of redhat linux then i get mysql database as well. right ? any tips whemn using/configuring/installing mysql database with redhat linux. ________________________________________________________________________ Want to sell your car? advertise on Yahoo Autos Classifieds.
