Can't start MySQL 5.0.67

2008-09-08 Thread Joe Tseng
I've got a server running FreeBSD7 and got MySQL 5.0.67 installed on it today. I ran mysql_install_db and then assigned the root password. I tried to get it running on boot (mysql_enable=YES) and by hand (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start) but I can't get the daemon to start. What else

initially installed this from ports I didn't use any kind of extra parameters. Are they needed? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2008 10:56:48 -0800 CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Can't start MySQL 5.0.67 On Monday 08 September 2008, Joe Tseng

is telling you that innodb can't create /var/db/mysql/ibdata1. After fixing permissions, you may need to do another initdb. Beech From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2008 10:56:48 -0800 CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Can't start MySQL 5.0.67

Yeah that was it... The chown -R mysql:mysql /var/db/mysql was what did it... Thx to all for the help. - Joe From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2008 11:46:02 -0800 CC: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Can't start MySQL 5.0.67 On Monday 08
