After I copied /usr/share/mysql/my-large.cnf it to /etc/my.cnf Then I restart mysql, and executed ps -ax
I got this : 32175 pts/3 S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/mysqld_safe --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --pid-file=/var/lib/mysql/myserver.pid 32200 pts/3 S 0:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/ --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/lib/mysql/myserver.pid --skip-locking --port=3306 Why there is no reference to /etc/my.cnf there ? Because if I see in other 3.23.58 (rpm), it's like this : 2653 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/safe_mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf 2678 ? S 0:02 /usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run Something wrong with my 4.0.16 (rpm) installation ? Or should I edit something in the /etc/my.cnf ? it just straight copy from /usr/share/mysql/my-large.cnf Please help, Thanks --- Dathan Vance Pattishall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Create one. > > Look in your base directory under support-files > Look for my-small.cnf > > > - Dathan Vance Pattishall > - Sr. Programmer and mySQL DBA for FriendFinder Inc. > - http://friendfinder.com/go/p40688 > > > -->-----Original Message----- > -->From: Admin-Stress [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > -->Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 11:44 AM > -->To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -->Subject: After installing MySQL 4.0.16 (rpm), it did not create > -->/etc/my.cnf ? > --> > -->Hi, > --> > -->My server is using RedHat 9.0. > --> > -->I just CHANGED the mysql from 3.23.58 (rpm) to 4.0.16 (rpm). > --> > -->What I did : > --> > --> # rpm -e <all mysql 3.23.58 rpm> > --> # rm -rf /var/lib/mysql > --> > --> then install the 4.0.16 (rpm) > --> > --> # rpm -i MySQL-server ....
