Problem installing mysql?
Hi,
I went and followed the directions at http://www.fastmysql.com/vbulletin/.../chapter_1.htm. I carefully did exactly as the directions specified.
When I got to the point of entering this command:
bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysqlusr &
I get this response:
[root@www mysql]# bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysqlusr &
[1] 10833
[root@www mysql]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
010827 15:02:35 mysqld ended
[1]+ Done bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysqlusr
[root@www mysql]#
I then tried this:
[root@www mysql]# bin/mysqladmin -u root status
bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!
[root@www mysql]#
What seems to be the problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance,
