MySQL

Hi all,
I just installed MySQL from the Cogent repository. The installation gave me
no error messages but where do we go now? I created a mysql user and chowned
mysql mysql.server and mysqld. Then I tried starting the server
(./mysql.server start) but it doesn’t work: mysqld ended. I couldn’t find
much doc and I’m getting lost!

Also, does anyone knows if the C++ API MySQL++ works under QNX 6.2?

Thanks for your help,
Martin

Hey Martin,

I found the package at ftp.qnx.org.ru to work and install with little
pain. A couple of caveats: 1. you must run the mysql_install_db script
after install the package. 2. you must create a mysql user. 3. you
must change the ownership of the /opt/var dir to the mysql user.

I think that was about it…
