Hello, I'm quite a beginner, and i need to launch a mysql database in order to use a database for apache&php. We i installed my fedora, i check the mysql box but now, when i look for the mysqld (with a find / ...) i do not find any.When i type mysql i got this error : [root@portailDEM ~]# mysql ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) [root@portailDEM ~]# so I checked the permission on this file and i found out that it didn't exists anyway In fact the repertory /var/lib/mysql doesn't even exist. I though that during the installation, the server will installed by itself, because of the checked box but ... How can i do to launch the server ? thanks a lot ps : here is the "locate mysql" return [root@portailDEM ~]# locate mysql /usr/bin/mysqltest /usr/bin/mysql_config /usr/bin/mysqldump /usr/bin/mysqlaccess /usr/bin/mysql_convert_table_format /usr/bin/mysqlbinlog /usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables /usr/bin/mysqld_multi /usr/bin/mysqlimport /usr/bin/mysql_zap /usr/bin/mysql_setpermission /usr/bin/mysqlbug /usr/bin/mysql /usr/bin/mysql_install_db /usr/bin/mysqlcheck /usr/bin/mysqlshow /usr/bin/mysqldumpslow .... .... It looks install but it is only the client ?
