MYSQL :: Configuring On Win98

Client Only For Win98
I have a small LAN with my workstation (Win98SE), a Win/2000 system and
a Linux system. I have MySQL servers running on the last two systems
and I want to put the client software on the workstation. Is there a
separate package for just client or do I need to install the whole
client/server setup?

Install MySQL On Win98
I downloaded MySQL 3.23.57 for Windows as I wish to learn MySQL
locally and then use the one I already have installed on my UNIX server.
I ran setup and rebooted but the WinMySQLadmin program will not start
the Server as it has a MyODBC error "Driver 3.51 Not Found".

I cannot find any reference to this in the books I have, at MySQL.com,
or any UserGroups.

Mysql Install On Win98
Win 98 with Apache 2.0, latest community version of mysql. So far have run the msi and installed it, wasn't promted for a username and password during this, assume only win2000/xp get this option ? What do i do next ?

Have looked at a ton of tutorials but still nothing clear.

I think i need to set a username and password then create the database, and maybe copy a file or two to my sustem dir? Ultimately i want to setup a phpbb forum on my home server.

Win98 Compatible Front-end
i just upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1 and my old version of SQLyog (which I kept from when it was free) doesn't work with v4.1 :( so i'm in need of a front-end. what I mean by standalone is basicly NOT phpmyadmin. It's not that i don't like the tool (i do, and i use it) but alot of the time i don't want to start apache and firefox up just to go have a look at something in a table. any ideas?

Installing MySQL On WIN98 Machine
I'm trying to install mySQL on my WIN98 machine (I ran the setup.exe file), and am never prompted for a password when I run the configuration wizard. When I try to then run the command window, I'm asked for the password. Can I change some config file or ini file?

I'm selecting either Detailed or Standard Configuration, and don't ever get the prompt for password. The checkbox for "Install as windows service" is disabled, so I can't check it.

Configuring MySQL On Mac OS X
I recently tried to install MySQL on Mac OS X box using these instructions on the Mac site (http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/osdb.html). All was working fine until I got to this part here:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-unix-socket-path=/usr/local/mysql/run/mysql_socket --with-mysqld-user=mysql --with-comment --with-debug

I got a bunch of "file not found" errors so I wanna trash whatever I did and start from scratch, but I don't know what exactly to delete? Does anyone have an idea about this?

Configuring MyODBC
I am using MyODBC 3.51 with Borland BDE, and was having a problem whereby Blob result fields were being restricted to a maximum size of 32k. Now, in the BDE control panel, I can set configuration variables for the MyODBC driver, and I was able to change the value of BLOB SIZE from 32 to 128, which solved the problem. However, there are many other configuration variables there (TRACE MODE, BATCH COUNT, BLOBS TO CACHE, ENABLE SCHEMA CACHE, ROWSET SIZE, etc.) for which I have not been able to find any documentation. Does anybody know where I can find documentation for these settings?

Configuring The Service In Each Start Up?
A couple of weeks ago I posted several questions in one post, and I think I overwhelmed people, so I'm breaking it into individual questions this time.

I don't know why but everytime I use MySQL I need to reconfigure the server using the wizard(I go to start>programs>mysql>MySQL server 4.1>MySQL service instance config wizard) everytime I turn my computer on. If I don't, I get a "ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)" error when trying to connect to the server in any account. I don't have to change anything when I run the wizard, I just click next all the way, and when its done I can connect normally.

I've noticed that at the end of the configuration when its running through all the tasks, the last one says "Sart service". I'm guessing that I'm not starting the mysql service when I turn my computer on, and that reconfiguring the service solves the problem because it starts the service for me. Do I have to reconfigure the service everytime I want to use it? Is there another way or maybe start the service automatically?

Installing And Configuring MySQL
System: MAC 10.3.2 G4 workstation

For the past three weeks I am trying to do the "simple" install. But of course it never works the way it reads. I have followed the FAQ and install descriptions that came with the package <http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Mac_OS_X_installation.html>
but i am stuck. At the moment I need to create a database and set the root password. i have no idea why it is not working. the following is the command line and error I am getting. Can someone please help me to install this properly?

Error Configuring Mysql?
I have installed MySQL CE 5.0, but during the configuration wizard I get an error.

It has frozen up during the final step (MySQL Server Instance
Configuration). I'm installing it on Windows XP, and I used all the
default settings, except that I changed "Detailed Configuration" to
"Standard Configuration". At the "Start Service" item in the checklist,
I got a 1045 error message saying to allow TCP port 3306. I tried
creating a rule for this in Norton, but it didn't seem to work.

So then I turned off Norton completely, restarted, tried the wizard, and
now it puts a red 'x' in the "Start service" checklist and says "The
service could not be stopped. Error: 0".

So I don't know if this is really a Norton/firewall issue or not. I
can't seem to get around this final step.

Configuring MySQL For JDBC ?
I'm having a MySQL DB running on one machine and a Java-Tool which accesses this DB via JDBC. With this tool, I can add a second DB data source in form of a mySQL DB and I've installed one more MySQL DB on a third machine, which runs perfect, but the access from the java-tool via JDBC-connection doesn't work.

Command line "mysql" tool work perfect from the machine where the java tool is running. The company which coded the java-tool told me that I have to install a package for the mysql db which enables jdbc. Is that right and what do I have to configure ?

Error Configuring PhpMyAdmin
I'm trying to install phpMyAdmin on a test server. I am using the GUI to create the configuration script.I would like to use HTTP mothod for authentication. As the guide says, I need to create a user and grant some privileges to the user. Here is the problem.
mysql -u root -p
INSERT INTO `user` (Host, User, Password) VALUES('localhost','pma',PASSWORD('something'));
Next I try to grant privileges, but receive an error:

GRANT USAGE ON mysql.* TO 'pma'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'something';

Error 1133 (42000) Can't find any matching row in the user table.
Now I know the user is there...If I do

SELECT * FROM `user` WHERE User='pma';

I get results, 1 row in set. The password is encrypted, but I did double check with the original user creation line and it is the same and typed in correctly. localhost is also there.So why is it not finding any user when I want to grant privileges?

Is there anyway to do this via command line, installshield, batch files..? What would one do if individuals were not "computer literate", and would not how to go about setting up the driver themselves or to make it easier, the software would automatically do it for them?
