#28772: mysql_install_db5 works without '--user=_mysql' option, but mysql.user table not populated -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: knightcode1@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: mysql5 -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by knightcode1@…): Hi, I first installed 'mysql' and then realized I really wanted mysql-server, which I installed after. Right now /opt/local/var/db/mysql5 has permissions 755 with user '_mysql' and group 'admin'. I also downloaded the binary mysql package from mysql.com. I have its server up and running, but I had to run it from my user account and change the ownership of its 'data' directory accordingly. Maybe there's something I'm just not understanding about how to set this up with another user account. Should I just create another account in the System Preferences? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28772#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
