Hi
i tried /etc/init.d/rc.d/mysqld start
mysqld does not exist on the server.
no /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
no /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
no /var/log/mysqld.log
this is a clean install from CentOS DVD iso.
i tried the mysqld script from my FC3 install and got the following
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld: line 11:
: command not found
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld: line 14:
: command not found
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld: line 17:

I get the feeling i need use yum to get some more mysql packages. big clue
is previously user:group mysql:mysql are set-up by an rpm.
rpm -qa | grep mysql
mysql-5.0.45-7.el5
is installed
the DVD has devel and server rpm's which i think as a minimum need to be
installed.
