VMWare Shared Drives don't work for ibdata1 (no replies)

I am trying to install MySQL 5.1.51-community on a Windows XP guest operating system under VMWare Workstation v.7.1.2. If I take all the defaults and install the mysql data directory on the C-drive, then it works. If I mount a USB drive, copy the ibdata1 file there, then I can change the data directory to the directory on the USB-mounted drive. I make this change using the MySQL Server Instance Config Wizard.

When I try to reconfigure the data directory to be on the VMWare shared drive, however, I get an error that mysql cannot find the ibdata1 file in the VMWare shared drive:

101017 21:20:02 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.
101017 21:20:03 InnoDB: Operating system error number 3 in a file operation.
InnoDB: The error means the system cannot find the path specified.
InnoDB: If you are installing InnoDB, remember that you must create
InnoDB: directories yourself, InnoDB does not create them.
InnoDB: File name Z:\vmware_play\ibdata1
InnoDB: File operation call: 'create'.
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.

I had shut down the service and copied the ibdata1 file to that exact directory.

You see, owning electronic cigarette is not usually psychological iniquity! (no replies)

People who smoke have a tendency to not consider physical exercise as routinely as they should.
Not exercising is typically mentally tied in to the guilt of destroying your wellbeing by smoking.
People are afraid to display on their own precisely how unfit they have grow to be via cigarette smoking so they don't exercise.
But there's decent news...Once you kick the habit and begin getting normal physical exercise your conditioning will quickly return as well as your self-esteem will obtain a huge boost.
Physical physical exercise raises endorphins and serotonin inside your human brain which make you really feel satisfied and proud of yourself.
For the sake of health, I smoke occasionally, when a craving hits, I takeelectronic cigarette, electric cigarette as a substitute!

Leopard -> Snow Leopard MySQL Break: Mac Mini Core Duo 1.66 (no replies)

Hi all,

Had MySQL 32bit Intel running on my original MacMini Core Duo ( that's Core Duo, NOT Core 2 Duo ) for some years. The Mac Mini was running various versions of Leopard client ( OSX 10.5 ). I upgraded MySQL successfully a number of times from 5.0.20x to eventually land at 5.0.85 as the last successful MySQL upgrade - I was using InnoDB as the engine. MySQL ran just peachy for at least 4 years ...

Last week I took the plunge and updgraded my little MacMini to Snow Leopard Client ( OSX 10.6 ), and downloaded the 32bit version of Community Server 5.1.51.

And after all manner of upgrades, even clean from-the-ground-up installs ( removing certificates, clearing out install p-lists, removing earlier versions, removing my.cnf from etc, etc etc ) I simply can't get MySQL to start up on the Mac Mini.

The important thing to note about this mini is it's NOT a 64 bit machine, it's the Core Duo Machine, the pre-cursor to the Core 2 Duo:

I suspect I'm either doing something totally stupid ( I know permissions are a big deal, so I cleaned everything out and started again ) or it's just that Snow Leopard & the earlier Core Duo 1.66 Mac Mini with MySQL simply can't work together.

If anybody's heard anything along these lines, please let me know.

Thanks
Charlie

Installed MySQL ok, but... (1 reply)

Can anyone help with a pointer(s)?

I just installed MySQL 5.1.51 ok (as far as I can tell),
can anyone tell me where I can find a duffers guide to installing MySQL, then PHP then Apache?

I have a copy version of a PHP site and files, I would like to run it on my local machine if possible. I know that WAMP is supposedly easier, but I might learn more if I have to at least try and configure the component parts. (Could be wrong)

I'd also like to know which version of each will work with each one.

I know it is pretty much a how long is a piece of string question, but I really am at the beginning here.

Information is out there but most sites assume some knowledge (I have none ) on the PHP MySQL Apache evolutionary scale I am still in a puddle.

Thanks in advance. Phatt

mysql.sock and my.cnf missing on install (4 replies)

I've installed MySQL on my Mac Pro (v5.1.51 from the .dmg) so that I can develop and test locally with php. Eventually, I will publish the finished php to my website along with (hopfeully) the MySQL database(s) I create.

1) The server is running (System Preferences --> MySQL).
2) I can connect as "root" in Terminal and add a password, create databases (after granting privileges), etc.

The problem comes when I try to open a php page with the following code:

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("server","user","pw");
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}

// some code
?>

I get the following error msg:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock'

I've spent 2-3 hours looking for solutions on the web. mysql.sock doesn't exist on my machine. Nor, for that matter, does etc/my.cnf. And yes, I checked for mysql.sock in /tmp/ rather than /var/.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Hello,

I have two issues that I cannot seem to get resolved. I'm not a SQL power user at all. My company users CRM that we query data from and we had a contractor set up the connection and we were told to download MY SQL 5.1 drive and we were supplied the name/credential/settings which I did on 3 machines (2xp machines and 1 WIN7 PRO) and after doing so we could connect.

When I open the ODBC data source administrator box I see the connection I created "System DSN" and i receive this error (ERRO FOUND: Invalid attribute string) and then we tried to uninstall the SQL 5.1 drive from add remove programs and after doing so I received this error (ERRORS FOUND: COMPONENT NOT FOUND IN THE REGISTRY).

I also cannot remove the data source on the ODBC box either.

I want to install MySQL on a server with Win Server 2003 SP1
domain controller.
Download the latest version of MySQL 5.1.51 and install it.
Start the MySQL Instance Configuration Wizard, follow all the steps
to the last screen
where after pressing the Execute button stays Procesing
Configuration ...

And there it is, does any of the 4 steps you need to do, not
throws no error, and no crashes.
Because I can go back to back in the settings or I can
cancel.
I wonder if any of you have passed or have any information about
this problem.

Disable antivirus, firewall and I have the appropriate port
open on the router.
From already thank you very much for the help I can provide.

Guillermo.

Re-install MySQL 5.1 after having lost root password (8 replies)

Dear All,

I hope this is not to stupid a question, but I'm not able to find any working solution to it. Been searching and trying now for several days without a good result.

For testing purposes I installed MySQL 5.1 on a computer, but unfortunately forgot the root password. I know, extremely stupid.

I thought that after stopping its service, uninstalling MySQL and then removing its folder from program files, all would be OK again. Unfortunately I was wrong.

During the re-installation process, at the point where you have to enter the root password, it still asks for the old root password. It's still there somehow.

Searching I found below URL procedure.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html

Googling for it I found several more possible options, but all of them based on the above URL.

These ones though do not work for me. What happens is, as soon as I enter the command in a DOS box and press enter, the cursor will stay blinking forever. It never finishes.

Looking under services, the MySQL service is also never restarted, which if I understand correctly is supposed to happen. This is probably also the reason why the cursor stays blinking forever as its waiting for the MySQL service to restart.

I'm using windows xp sp3 English in combination with MySQL 5.1.

My question.

-Does anybody have any idea, short of creating a completely new windows installation, how I could solve this problem?
-Is there a way to remove the initially set root password?

If the old databases created during testing are lost in the process, that's not a problem at all. As long as I can make a clean MySQL installation again.

Thanks for any input on this for me very frustrating problem.

Best regards,

I installed mysql-5.1.51 on OSX and I am having a hell of a time with it.

It worked fine for a few days and then something happened. I attempted to research the fix myself but to no avail.

I receive the error:

ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I have searched my whole system for this file. It is not on the box. I have looked in the var directories that everyone suggests to look but to no avail.

I uninstalled and reinstalled and I am still getting the same error. I even tried running the startup scripts again, because I read there was a bug in version 4 of the software.

Please Help.

Security? (no replies)

Hello altogether,

I'm quite new to MySQL and have a question regarding security.

I have a MySQL instance running on a test server. I can also access it from outside via Internet, so this configuration works fine. However, I'm not sure about the security of the database when it's (theoretically) publicly accessible (if someone has a user name and the respective password).

I configured different users with passwords. Before I fill the database with partly sensitive data, I'd like to get an impression what you think about the security. Is it ok to open the port on the firewall and to forward the port directly for the public internet? Can I put sensitive data into the tables? Or do I need any additional measures for my colleagues to access the database?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Frank

msi installer (2 replies)

This msi installer it has real disadvantages, if it can detect if there is or no instance on machine why then in configuration wizard you have
this panel of modifying security settings for root. This is just stupid, if the instance is for the first time, how can you have a field Current root password it is just stupid, only logical would be to have:

root user name field(Not root):
password field:
confirm password field:


Almost 100% of configuring software have this kind of option, so for me this msi installer should be better designed and root user name is so bad concept or hacker haven.

unknown option '--skip-bdb' (1 reply)

Hello, I am attempting a fresh install of MySQL 5.1.51 (from source) on my new Debian server. I have never attempted to run a MySQL server on linux before (only Windows Server), and am getting a strange error while running "/usr/libexec/mysqld --skip-grant-tables --user=mysql". It returns "/usr/libexec/mysqld: unknown option '--skip-bdb'", of which I don't understand hence I never specified "--skip-bdb".

Also, while running "mysql_install_db", I get this: "Installation of system tables failed!", and then I am prompted to check the log file in /var/lib/mysql. The only problem is that the log files are empty, containing no data. Thank you for your help. And if you need any additional information, feel free to say so.
