Hi,
I am trying to install Mysql on linux which I don't have a root access. I have
done the folowing :
1. Download source files from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ and un-tar
thwm
2. configure the instalation using ./configure as:
CFLAGS=-O3 CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS=-O3 -felide-constructors
mysqld_safe might not know where your config file is located. You can
specify it's location at the command line with
--defaults-file=file_name
alternatively, you could specify the location of your log file thus:
--log-error=file_name
