#14600: MySQL5-server fixes ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: paulbeard@gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ 1. It would help if permissions were set properly so MySQL could create its socket file in /opt/local/var/db/mysql5. {{{ chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/db/mysql5 }}} For whatever reason mysqld could create and write to a log file but couldn't create its socket file until I set the permissions. 2. On line 42 of /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysql_secure_installation mysql should be mysql5. {{{ 40 do_query() { 41 echo $1 >$command 42 mysql5 --defaults-file=$config <$command }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14600> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
