Problem Starting MySql From Root
I am in the process of creating a database which will serve as a backend for the registration of users' details and to handle account activation via the use of php scripts. I really need help with starting MySql. I have scoured various forums and followed instructions from the mysql.com, and other such tutorials.
I am creating the website using dreamweaver on a windows 2000 pc but I am planning to place it on the linux box where the apache web server will handle it (if you know what I mean). The linux server is where the php and Mysql are installed. Incidentally the php installation is located in the /etc directory - and it works.
I downloaded the Mysql binary file version 4.0.25 recently. Followed the installation instructions to the letter up to the change of ownership stuff. Code:

Starting MYSQL...
--=_5D034890.F392DE43 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit This may be a very simple question and possibly could have a very simple solution to it. Since I have been using mysql for less than 2 months, I still consider myself a newbie.... I still cannot execute certain commands from my dos prompt, but I can run queries easily using phpmyadmin. I have purchased MYSQL Second Edition (Paul Dubois) so I hope to put it to good use soon.... The question that is of concern to me this morning is the prefered way to start mysql. I seem to think that I always have a problem because when I start my PC, mysql is already running as a service. But I am thinking that because I login to my PC as any user other than the dbase username, I have a problem afterwards. Must I always log on to my PC (Win2K) as the same user as the created user in my DBase in order for mysql to run properly?

Mysql Not Starting
I had to reload mysql 4.0.17 on to a Fedora Core machine that was previously working in the same configuration. Now though I can't get the server to run with the either of the following commands: ../mysql.server start - the command line reappears with no error but no running process in the system monitor /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe -user=mysql - this command does not return to the command prompt so when I hit the enter key I get "Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 0404124 00:13:21 mysqld ended. It looks to me as if it attempts to start but fails with no error. What am I missing on the reinstall?

MySQL Slow Starting Up
I am using a Windows 2003 Web Edition Server running IIS and MySQL 4.1. I had to restart the server the other day and it took MySQL almost 2 hours to come back up. I was watching it on my task manager and it went up to approximately 60,000k in 10k increments before I was able to access MySQL. My CPU usage was hovering around 3% all this time. Everything else came up on the server just fine. This happens every time I have to restart my server. The reason I have to restart my server most of the time, is because MySQL locks up on me. Is there any settings I can change that would help me here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. One more thing to add. I am using the default my.ini file. We have almost 100 different databases on the server and have around 20000 tables within all of these databases combined. All of these tables are InnoDB tables.

Starting Fresh With Mysql >> Dadabik
I have an Excel spreadsheet which has been my source document for the past several years for a collection I own. It has about 2000 entries (records) and each record has ~20 fields. Photographs of each item in the database are an integral part of this. What I'd like to do is move all of this knowledge onto the web in database fashion and provide a means to allow users to search the database. I found DaDaBIK which seems to be perfect for the show and tell phase of my project, but I need to create the database properly first. I can make a mysql database with my hosting account, but I don't know where to start. I know databases can be tricky; at least what I know of Access is tricky, so I want to do this right. I'm looking for help, maybe a simple tutorial, that will guide me through the process of transforming my Excel data and photos into a mysql database online. I have googled for this, but there are so many articles, and it is all over my head anyway.

Mysql Nt Service Stopped Starting After 2 Years
i have been running mysql on windows server 2003 for the last almost 2 years (its a really early version of mysql 4 anyway) but now all of a sudden mysql service stopped starting, i can go to services, press start and then refresh and its off again! i have a feeling that someone deleted the core mysql table (mysql) as it is now totally empty. im not too good with my sql as i generally use mssql or whatever, infact mysql never really installed properly, the only user i could ever use was root but i didnt mind this so i just left it and it was fine for 2 years but now its just stopped all of a sudden and i cant get it back on. i have enabled the mssql php exension as a backup system but i cant transfer any databases across without enabling mysql.. but it wont turn on! i tried several exes in e:mysqlin but none got it on (well one of them made the little winmysqladmin light go on for half a second)

Mysql 5.1 Windows Realease Server Starting Problem
I am a new user to MySQL, and I have run into difficulties starting it. I have successfully done this once a while back, and than had to go away for a while. I am now trying to start the server again via the windows command line. I type: "C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.1inmysqld" as directed from section 2.3.10 of the user guide and nothing happens. It just returns C prompt. I then use "C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.1inmysqld" --console; this gives screen output as I do not get a data directory with an error file without '--console' The output is: 090419 17:30:38 InnoDB: Operating system error number 5 in a file operation. InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to InnoDB: the directory. It may also be you have reated a subdiretory InnoDB: of the same name as a data file. InnoDB: File name .ibdata1 InnoDB: File operation call: 'open'. InnoDB: Cannot continue operation. And then goes back to C prompt on the command line. Can anyone help me? If memory serves, I followed the user guide to the letter when I started (save for the post-startup material). As well (and possibly related), I have the mysql command line client in windows on the desktop (c:program filesmysqlmysql server 5.1inmysql.exe). I click this and it prompts me for 'enter password'. I don't ever remember entering a password the last time which may be related to the first problem staring mysql server from the command line.

Root May Only Connect From Localhost; Locked Me Out Of Root

Then I did: DELETE FROM user WHERE user = '(mynewrootusername)' AND host = '%'; Which apparently only allows root login from localhost.

Installing Mysql As User, NOT Root
I've had to install mysql as a regular user, and not as root. Before it was so simple since I was root but now I am on someone else's server. I downloaded a non-RPM Standard5.0.19 binary. I untarred it and blindy tried to start it and of course got a number of errors. I found that mysql 4.1.12 was already running. I took a look at http://lists.mysql.org/mysql/42514 and decided to make some changes: - uid - TCP port - socket file - basedir - datadir In mysql.server (in support-files) I changed the basedir and datadir to (/apps/myaccount is my home acct) /apps/myaccount/base and /apps/myaccount/data, but as the above listed post mentioned, I also need to change 3 other things. I need to put everything into my home account, so how should I change the uid, the tcp port, and the socket file?

Even Root Cannot Connect To Database 'mysql'
The version of my mysql server is 3.23.58. Before hand, everything works fine. However, when I connect to the data server sit in host 'A' from host 'B' by jdbc. As mysql's user table denied the access from host 'B', I know when attribute 'host' in table 'user' is set to '%' will fix the problem, However, I set it graphically from phpmyadmin. After setting, the direct result is I cannot connect to any databases in this server@A even from A the error msg is: ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'mysql'. By googling, I copied the 'user.frm', 'user.MYD', 'user.MYI' from another host to the corresponding path in host A and restart mysqld. It doesn't work. Then, I tried 'mysql_install_db', gone in vain either. It cost me nearly 2 whole days . I have many important databases stored in this server, I am afraind the install of a new one will bring more problems. Any suggestions, or ideas?

NTFS Securities For MySQL Root
I have is, what is the tightest security I can setup for the MySQL directory? Is there much risk in leaving it open with the default "Everyone" having full control? I am not sure I understand why this is the default, but anyway... I am running Windows 2000 Adavanced Server SP4 (NTFS) IIS 5.0 My application for MySQL is currently just forums (PHPBB2). It uses the MySQL database to store all data. In the future, I want to create dynamic webforms using PHP, and interface to the MySQL database from a webpage. How do I need to setup NTFS to have the tighest security possible on the web, while allowing me to preform these functions? Which directories in the MySQL root need read/write/modify access? My current feeling is to remove "Everyone" from the MySQL root on down. Then add administrators with full control, and IUSR_server_name with read/write access. Do I need execute? Is write access even neccisarry? Am I correct in understanding that everything within IIS uses the IUSR_server_name account to access these resources?
