Package: sysbench Version: 0.4.12-1 Severity: minor
Dear maintainer, I have just installed sysbench on a debian stable. Reading the manual I can see an example. It seems some options used in the example are not valid anymore: $ sysbench --test=oltp --mysql-table-type=myisam --oltp-table-size=1000000 --mysql-socket=/tmp/mysql.sock prepare Unknown option: --mysql-table-type. Usage: sysbench [general-options]... --test=<test-name> [test-options]... command My guess is that --mysql-table-type should be replaced by --mysql-table-engine. Yet even after this, the example still does not work: $ sysbench --test=oltp --mysql-table-engine=myisam --oltp-table-size=1000000 --mysql-socket=/tmp/mysql.sock prepare sysbench 0.4.12: multi-threaded system evaluation benchmark No DB drivers specified, using mysql FATAL: unable to connect to MySQL server, aborting... FATAL: error 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) FATAL: failed to connect to database server! I am a complete novice at sysbench so I can't provide more useful information but yet I think a little rewrite of this part of the manual could greatly help using this program.
