Managed to run the mysql-setup.sh script after starting mysqld with service mysqld start but suspect I will have to configure this to start automatically?
Edited the system identifier for Fedora Core 4, the architecture and the build directory into the current-install-script.sh and ran the script in a terminal window preceded by sh. It started running and ran for about 5 mins but then failed with a series of errors: latest to earlier they go: error: file not found by glob: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/simscan-toaster*.rpm error: failed build dependencies: qmail-toaster >=1.03-1.2.4 is needed by simscan-toaster-1.1-1.2.6.i386 Preceded by several warnings that groups/users do not exist - using root. (groups/users are qmail/qmaill) I had put the packages, previously download, in /usr/src and was runing the script from there. (Should they have been somwhere else?) Many thanks in advance for your help. Kind regards, Mark. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Piekos Sent: 29 December 2005 19:07 To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: [qmailtoaster] Error runing mysql setup script. OK, I will have to admit that I am not the most experienced Linux user who's ever joined the list... I managed to work out that I could use the scripts provided by the gurus on the list to do the work. I managed to download the packages with 'current-download-script.sh' (after having already downloaded them manually) :-) so thought I would try and run the mysql-setup.sh script too. I first ran the fdr40-deps.sh script and this deleted three evolution packages and then reported 'Nothing To Do'. ( I am loading on Fedora Core 4 installed graphically from the downloaded dvd iso with the 'everything' option box ticked and have updated packages with 'yum update'.) When I ran the mysql-setup.sh script (from a terminal window as root in the same directory as the script with 'sh mysql-setup.sh' ) I got a series of messages saying: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: Can't connect to local Mysql server through socket 'var/lib/mysql.sock' (2) Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:'var/lib/mysql.sock' exist! I'd be grateful for any advice on this please. Before running the script I edited the password in the file to be my own chosen password, saved the file and re-opend it to check that I had changed it correctly. BTW, If I can get past this one, is there a script I can run to install the whole system on Fedora core 4? Are there any bits I need to edit? Many thanks in advance.
