Hi, The ?\h? or ?help? brought no more luck. Even ?help contents? failed. Are the help topics are in separate packages and I have to install more packages? My mysql related packages are attached below. Thanks. [user01@www ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql mysqlclient10-3.23.58-6 mysql-devel-4.1.16-1.FC4.1 mod_auth_mysql-2.6.1-4 mysql-bench-4.1.16-1.FC4.1 mysql-4.1.16-1.FC4.1 perl-DBD-MySQL-2.9007-1 mysql-server-4.1.16-1.FC4.1 libdbi-dbd-mysql-0.7.1-3 [user01@www ~]$ ________________________________________ From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ankush Grover Sent: Friday, February 17, 2006 8:44 AM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: Please help: MySQL "help" command fails on FC4.
