When you started the mysql server as detailed in the previous message,
did it give you any errors? If it did, you may want to try it as:
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
You may also want to have the mysql server run at boot-up so you don't
have to manually start it. As root, do:
/sbin/chkconfig mysqld on
This should get you up and running as long as MySQL is installed properly.
----------------------------------------------------
When i /etc/init.d/mysqld start, it says:
chown: 'mysql :mysql' : invalid user
chown: 'mysql :mysql' : invalid user
Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.
Starting MySQL: [FAILED]
When I /sbin/chkconfig mysqld on.. it appears to work.
When I try to run any part of Mythtv, it says 2005-06-20 08:10:32.726 New DB connection, total
: 1.
Thanks for any help, Ian.
