Hello list,
I need to have a federated table in MySQL.
However, the engine in the Fedora package is not enabled.
How can I enable it ? Is there an optional package ?
make sure that:
1. rpmdevtools is installed
2. you have executed /usr/bin/rpmdev-setuptree before, as yourself.
3. you have yum-utils installed
Then:
yumdownloader --source mysql
rpm -ihv mysql-5.0.67-2.fc10.src.rpm
cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/
rpmbuild -bp mysql.spec
Install any dependancies listed: I had to yum install gperf.
vi mysql.spec
in the %configure section, add:
--with-federated-storage-engine \
Save mysql.spec
rpmbuild -ba mysql.spec
After a while, you will have the packages to install. Because it is the
same as the installed one, you will need to rpm -e mysql ... whatever
mysql packages you currently have installed.
Now install the new ones you built.
If you need to preserve the mysql packages over future yum updates, you
will need to add lines in /etc/yum.conf to ignore those packages.
Good Luck!
