RE: multiple server versions on 1 box startup error#
Have you set it up so that these instances run on different ports and different sockets? If you are not using mysqld multi you will have to specify which mysql/bin/safe_mysqld you want to start on the command line. -Original Message- From: sean c peters To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 8/12/04 5:33 PM Subject: multiple server versions on 1 box startup error# I am trying to run two different MySQL server versions on the same solaris machine. I already have a 4.0.2 running, and i have successfully installed 4.1.3 beta. I ran mysql_install_db successfully (after setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH), but when i try to run mysqld_safe --user=mysql I get the error: A mysqld process already exists [1]+ Exit 1 ./mysqld_safe --user=mysql This is certainly true, because my 4.0.2 is running, but i dont understand why this is a problem. I am running the mysqld_safe for version 4.1.3, and when i built 4.1.3 i used the configure options: (among others) --prefix=/usr/loca/mysql-4.1.3 --with-tcp-port=3306 --with-unix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql-4.1.3.sock --datadir=/var/mysql-4.1.3 And these options are all different from the 4.0.2 configuration. So i assumed that things would run ok. The only thing i can think of is that the /vaar/mysql-4.1.3/my.cnf is not being read correctly. Perhaps i have an error in it, but i'd think that mysqld_safe would let me know. If its not being read, then some options from my default /etc/my.cnf are not being overridden, and that could be the problem. Here is the info on the /var/mysql-4.1.3/my.cnf file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 2042 Aug 12 18:08 my.cnf and the permissions ownership are identical to that for /etc/my.cnf I am at a loss thanks much. sean peters [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Sean, Have you checked the pid file? Have you given it a unique path for this server?
