Hello all
After being absent for a while now I'm back with this question: Does anyone know of any guide on how to start mysql on Linux? Actually I was writing a long complain that mysql doesn't run on linux! But during the writing I could sort of fix it! Now it works, but only the mysql & test databases are not active coz their directory isn't created. I think I can do something for it myself! I just wanted to know if any of you went through the same experience: running mysql that is already installed with your Linux package, not grabbing a new mysql and deleting the old one and installing the new one!
Any help would be appriciated.
BTW I could finally find & run it under /usr/bin !! it has another directory called /usr/libexec which I couldn't find out (yet) what I should do with it!
