#24956: Having trouble using mysql5 and php5 --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: samii@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: wiki | Version: Keywords: | Port: php5 --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment(by samii@…): Well, I've uninstalled everything and right now, I am in the process of reinstalling. mysql5-server is installing now. I am following the howto here on MacPorts. Just to be sure, because I believe that my errors result from my last attempted install. Once mysql5-server is installed, I need to set up the main database and then start mysql5-server. There are two ways of setting up the main database as per the howto. Which would you recommend? Likewise, I believe I had problems with setting the password last time. What output should I expect when I set up the password, and what should be a red flag that something is broken? Also, should I run the optional security configuration? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24956#comment:13> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
