Hi Tom, First, you must have a non-root user to run slimserver. When you start slimserver, add the option "--user your_slimserver_user", that will do. Second, slimserver needs mysqld which can be found in /opt/libexec. This is not in the PATH, you can either add it or make a symlink in a directory which is in the PATH (e.g. /opt/sbin). Third, when slimserver starts it creates a file "my.cnf" in the data directory (normally you pass this with an option), and uses it as a configuration file for the mysqld instance it starts. Don't edit this, it is overwritten every time. Instead, edit the file "my.tt" in the SlimServer/MySQL directory and comment out the line "inno_db_fast_shutdown=1". You'll get a warning in the log about missing Inno_DB support but it starts anyway. I guess an expert could comment on what effect this change may have. For me it works but keep in mind that I have a small library.
