Installing MySQL 4.1 on Fedora Core 3.

[Sunnz]

I tried to install mysql 4 from the rpm from mysql.com... but it seems that I can't start it by /usr/bin/mysqld_safe &, it says:


# /usr/bin/mysqld_safe &

[1] 32375



Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql

STOPPING server from pid file /var/lib/mysql/downstairs.sunnz.org.pid

050412 14:41:36 mysqld ended
What's going on?

I should have removed MySQL 3 by "yum erase mysql".

Cheers.:)

you must update mysql table rights after update to 4.1

try to run mysql_fix_privilege_tables first

It wasn't an update, just straigt installation... anyway I have got it working now by compileing from source. Thanks for the help anyway!:D
