mysqld isn't starting.  See what the error log says, it will likely be
in /usr/local/mysql/data

Connecting MySQL in Panther

2004-06-12 Thread chueewowee
Hello, I'm new to the list and need help of course.
My problems are in connecting to MySQL. I am running Panther 10.38. , MySQL
4.018.
I have removed all old files before reinstalling MySQL. I have installed
the MySQL Startup Item and it is correctly located.
Output from the Terminal is as follows:

[raisinspace:~] chueewow% sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQL/MySQL start
Starting MySQL database server
[raisinspace:~] chueewow% /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
[raisinspace:~] chueewow% sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQL/MySQL start

[raisinspace:/usr/local/mysql] chueewow% Starting mysqld daemon with
databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
040612 23:32:05  mysqld ended
Also, from my HTML browser (SAfari) when :

I have sought and tried  all kinds of advice. But either it is not clear or
working for me.

It is listed as a document with Zero KB for its size (?).  It definitely is
one of the files that I dragged back from the trash.
Should I attempt to fix all of this, or go ahead with an uninstall?
Well, it's maybe a little risky to go ahead and trash all that stuff,
but I'd guess that's what you want to do.  If the mysql program isn't
found as a command (as shown above), it's not doing you any good.  You
might try this command to see what kind of thing it actually is now:
file /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql

If I do need to uninstall, how do I do it?  I installed the latest PACKAGE
from the MySQL.com site 4.0.18-standard along with the startup item package.
Use the rm commands that Scott Haneda suggested in his message.  Then
reinstall.

Uninstall MySQL for Panther?

2004-03-12 Thread John Mistler
I am two days into troubleshooting this.  I need some help badly.

I installed MySQL 4.0.18 for Mac.  I was able to get in at first:

Welcome to MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 14 to server version: 4.0.18-standard

then I would type mysql create database mytest;

and get: ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database
'mytest'

I tried all kinds of commands to change the root password, and every single
one would result in Access denied for user . . . 

I would like to install, instead, CompleteMySQL from the
serverlogisitics.com site, which has interfaces to help newbies like me.
However, it is only at version 4.0.15.  So my question is:

How can I UNINSTALL the current 4.0.18 version I already have, before
installing the other one?

Thanks,

John

No, no! Be strong, you don't need the training wheels :-)

Re-read the doc about grant tables and then restart the server with
the `--skip-grant-tables` flag so you can reset the root password.

I don't know what those files are, they are not part of where mysql should

them.


You can remove mysql by doing the following
rm -r /usr/local/mysql
rm -r /Library/StartupItems/MySQL

This will get you back to a clean machine with no mysql, from there, run the
installer and this time follow the instructions exactly on how to start
mysql as well as how to set the root password to the mysql permissions
database.

If you still get stuck, drop me a email directly and I can walk you thought
it.

Installing Mysql on Panther

2003-12-19 Thread Trebor Scholz
Hi,

I'd like to install mysql on OSX Panther.
In my tutorial it suggests to switch
Web Sharing off in the preferences but
There are many options in the menu there and web sharing off
Is not one of them.

Any suggestions?

Best,
Trebor

	Perhaps they mean to go to the System Preferences, and turn off Web

Make sure you have run the scripts/mysql_install_db script.
Also make sure that the mysql data directory has the correct rights for the
mysql user:

Something like:

chown -R mysql:mysql /usr/local/mysql/var
chmod -R 770 /usr/local/mysql/var

should probably work.

Egor,

Where is the datadir locate?

:-)
The message below says:

  Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/mysql
Which indicates that /var/mysql is the datadir.  Change location
into the directory and have a look around.  Try ls -la . to see
what the ownerships are.  You should also find a subdirectory named
mysql, which is where the grant tables are.

MySQL should be owner of the data dir.

There is no my.cnf by default on OS X. Unless you want to override 
default compiled settings, it's not really needed. But you usually do, 
so you need to create your own. MySQL comes with some samples you can 
use.

As for your problems. Your directories where everything is located look 
like where things were placed in OS X 10.1. Apple and the MySQL package 
installer install everything in the /user/local/ directory. This 
started with 10.2. That's probably where all your problems are coming 
from.
I would highly recommend removing your current MySQL install and 
installing it again so that are your files are in the default 
locations. That will make things much easier going forward, especially 
if you don't know how changing directory permissions will affect the OS.

The graphical package installer for OSX available from mysql website 
does a good job of setting things up and putting things in the right 
place. There is also an installer for having MySQL startup 
automatically when you boot. The startup script adheres to Apple's 
guidelines including an XML based parameter list file.

Mysql on panther

2003-11-05 Thread Nestor Florez
Hi guys,

I just was given the OK to play with a new server running
Mac OS X (Panther)

When I give the command (it is recommended to use mysqld_safe instead of mysqld in 
some website)
*---
# /usr/bin/mysqld_safe
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/mysql
031105 13:09:40  mysqld ended
*---


I look at the .err file in /var/mysql/ and it looks like this:
*
031105 13:09:38  mysqld started
031105 13:09:38  InnoDB: Started
031105 13:09:38  Fatal error: Can't open privilege tables: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't 
exist
031105 13:09:38  Aborting

031105 13:09:38  InnoDB: Starting shutdown...
031105 13:09:40  InnoDB: Shutdown completed
031105 13:09:40  /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete

031105 13:09:40  mysqld ended
*

I search for the my.cnf and I do not find it, but I know that Mac OS X puts
things in different places.

Any ideas?

Thanks :-)

Are you using Panther client or server? my.cnf is usually in /etc. Have 
you run mysql_install_db yet?
