Any MySQL gurus here?	by andrej	2002-09-29 18:48:13
Check for --user	by spoon	2002-09-29 22:59:10
Look at the mysqld rc.d script, check what user it's attemping to run mysql as. The line to look for is "--mysql". Most distribution try to run mysql as the user "mysql". If it is check the permissions on "/usr/local/mysql/var". It should be owned my mysql.mysql. You can make mysqld run as another user by adding the "--user" to your rc.d script. For example this is mine. start) touch /var/log/mysqld.log chown mysql.mysql /var/log/mysqld.log /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld \ --user=mysql \ --basedir=/usr/local/mysql \ --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/var \ --log=/var/log/mysqld.log \ --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld.pid & ret=$? if [ $ret -eq 0 ]; then action "Starting MySQL: " /bin/true else action "Starting MySQL: " /bin/false fi [ $ret -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/mysqld ;; Mine you, if you're running 4.x safe_mysqld becomes mysqld_safe.
