implementing mysql on lonestar
Answer
4/18/13 8:00 PM
Hi All
I am new to the lonestar environment. A program that I wish to use requires that I have access to mysql. Has anybody here had any experience installing mysql on lonestar? I have spent the last 10 hours trying to get it to work by installing it from source and redirecting it to directories where I have permissions. When I tried to start it I get:

login1$ ./bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
[1] 32092
login1$ 130418 14:45:59 mysqld_safe Logging to '/var/log/mysqld.log'.
touch: cannot touch `/var/log/mysqld.log': Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/mysqld.log': No such file or directory
130418 14:45:59 mysqld_safe The file /work/02421/alexa039/mysql//work/02421/alexa039/bin//mysqld
does not exist or is not executable. Please cd to the mysql installation
directory and restart this script from there as follows:
./bin/mysqld_safe&
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqld-safe.html for more information
bin/mysqld_safe: line 129: /var/log/mysqld.log: Permission denied

So I don’t know how I can use the program if I don’t have permissions in /var/log/mysqld.log'. (or how to redirect to a different directory)

There are some other issues that will take too much space here at the moment.
Thanks in advance
