Hi All,
What have I done wrong here.? Installed mysql via YUM(1st mistake.?). Cheers.
Yeah, installing mysql was the mistake! Postgresql is what you want. Just kidding! :)
First guess is that you may have a problem with selinux. Try disabling that temporally to see if that fixes the problem. If it does check back earlier in todays messages, there was one discussing mysql and getting it started. I have included the info from the linked message below.
setenforce 0 etc/init.d/mysqls start
If mysqld start, follow this procedure to configure SELinux :
From Startmenu select"System settings" Then choose "Security settings or security level" A window appears with 2 tabs : "Firewall options" and "SELinux" Choose SELinux. At the bottom half of the window you have a lisbox, listing (at least on
my PC)
Apache Name Service NIS SELinux Service Protection
Open SELinux Service Protection Select "Disable SELinux protection for mysqld daemon" Click "OK" you had to reboot to make it work
Hi All,
nah, se linux is not running on my Fedora2 box. I did a yum remove mysql and am now installing from the tar file. Cheers.
