In the "Developer Tools" menu there are some scripts that assist with setting up mysql5. There's still some work to be done (and some bugs filed, notably CR 6641919, fixed in 79a) to help with some of the other issues. In fact, I filed one just the other day related to the mysql service. You can see the design intent for the developer experience on the Web Stack project wiki: http://wikis.sun.com/display/WebStack/WebStack+setup+before+B79 There you'll see screenshots of what I mean. We know there's more refining to do, but got something put together for 79a. Please send over any feedback. Of course, build 79 isn't available outside Sun yet (darn lawyers!), but everyone should be able to play with this very soon with build 79a. > I tried to start mysql5 using svcadm enable. > Not sure if there is a getting started doc, but I basically found dir > /usr/mysql/5.0/bin and executed mysql_install_db from there. > That created the mysql dir and files under /var/mysql/5.0/data/ > > However; > # svcs -x > svc:/application/database/mysql:version_50 (MySQL RDBMS) > State: maintenance since January 16, 2008 6:48:05 PM PST > Reason: Start method exited with $SMF_EXIT_ERR_CONFIG. > See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-KS > See: MySQL 5.0.45(1) > See: http://dev.mysql.com/docs > See: /var/svc/log/application-database-mysql:version_50.log > Impact: This service is not running. > zbit:/var/mysql/5.0# cat > /var/svc/log/application-database-mysql:version_50.log > [ Dec 5 17:53:22 Disabled. ] > [ Dec 5 17:53:22 Rereading configuration. ] > [ Jan 16 18:48:05 Enabled. ] > [ Jan 16 18:48:05 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/mysql start"). ] > mysql/data directory /var/mysql/5.0/data is not a valid MySQL data > directory <<<=== *** > [ Jan 16 18:48:05 Method "start" exited with status 96. ] > > > So I notice that the data dir, and all files in it are owned by root. > is that correct? > I did try a chown -R mysql:mysql in that dir to see if it helps, but I get > the same error while trying to start mysqld. > > What am I overlooking, and where is the doc for the proper way > to configure and start mysql specific to our Solaris layout? > > Thanks, > > Neal > > > > _______________________________________________ > webstack-discuss mailing list > webstack-discuss at opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/webstack-discuss > -- Matt Ingenthron - Web Infrastructure Solutions Architect Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Global Systems Practice http://blogs.sun.com/mingenthron/ email: matt.ingenthron at sun.com Phone: 310-242-6439
