Hi.. I have problem installing MySQL server in my RedHat Enterprises 3.0 box. It was not installed with MySQL I used this command RH#up2date -d -i mysql and it download the mysql-3.23.58-2.3 from RHN But when I typed mysql -usa ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) it means my sa password is wrong then what is default password then ? or it means I have only the mysql client program? then how to download the mysql-server from RHN ? I tried to download the mysql-server rpm package from www.mysql.com and installed but it gives me the following error. why? ********************************************* [root@RH]# rpm -ivh MySQL-server-4.0.23-0.i386.rpm warning: MySQL-server-4.0.23-0.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 5072e1f 5 error: Failed dependencies: MySQL conflicts with mysql-3.23.58-2.3 ********************************************* And when I want to remove the mysql-3.23.58-2.3, I failed. How to get rid of the loop?
