Has all the rpm's for all the distros. How did you get FC4 on the
computer? The disks should have the base rpm's for all of this, or
you can download the ISO's from the fedora site. I *think* there's a
gnome program in there somewhere that's kinda like the Windows "Add/
Remove Programs" thing, but I don't remember the name of it. But it
used to let you pick something to install and then it would pull all
the necessary bits off of the disks. 'yum' will do that for you over
the internet also, I think. You can do a 'man yum' in a terminal and
get some of the details of how that works, if you have it installed.

Your point are well taken. I was ale to follow directions from the
mysql website to start getting mysql to work instead of the linux
site which was the basis for my original post. Does anyone know
where I can go to download (aside from the red hat site where i
would need to gather license info) a php-mysql rpm?

Subject: Re: Installing php and mysql on linux
You've either got path problems or up2date is not installed.
That's what 'command not found' means, it can't find the
'up2date' command.
Do you just want to start the MySQL server? Or are you trying to
update the MySQL rpm?
You should be able to start the server with a '/etc/init.d/mysql
start', as root. If that doesn't work try 'mysqld' in place of
'mysql'. I don't remember which one Fedora uses.
If you're trying to update the rpm then make sure you have up2date
installed. 'rmp -qa | grep up2date' should get you something. If
it is installed then try to ad the complete path to up2date, I
can't remember where it is off the top of my head but '/usr/bin/
up2date' or '/usr/sbin/up2date' should get it.
I would also suggest you either look online or get a good book on
linux administration, especially if this system is doing anything
important. As root you can really mess it up if you don't know
what you're doing. And you could probably find a good used book
fairly cheap. You shouldn't need to get the latest and greatest
as the basic administration stuff has been relatively standard
for quite a few years now.
Good Luck!

I checked the above page on 'Yum" and see no up2date command as
you point out. However when I tried update in the format
suggested in the link, it still gives a command not found error.

I think up2date is *not* up2date ;-)
Google for 'yum' and all its flags for usage...
