I think the "includes Mysql" is more for Windows/Mac users than debian-and-friends users. Especially since it is much easier for Slim to just add "Depends: mysql-server" to the build and not have to deal with mysql itself.
The way it should work, I believe, is that it would grab mysql from the repository and invoke it by itself instead of letting the init scripts do it, effectively adding a "private" mysql instance. If you aren't running mysql already, it should detect that and start it for you, listening on port 9092. That can break for several reasons though: 1) Something else had 9092 when it started so it couldn't get that port. 2) Mysql failed to start for some reason. 3) A firewall is blocking the port. I don't know how the self-starting mysql should work: I think it logs into slimserver.log. Does Ubuntu come with some stock firewall thing? -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37455 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
