Hello,
My name is Richard and I'm a system administrator at Naturvetarsektionen,
which is a student organisation at University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
We are running RedHat 6.1 on a SPARCStation 5.
The libraries we use is glibc-2.1.2-15, which is installed as a
RPM-package, distributed toghether with RH6.1.
The compiler is egcs-2.91.66, also distributed with RH 6.1.
Due to the lack of a binary distribution for our system, I compiled the
Source-RPM of MySQL, version 3.22.30-1.
There is no way to install the grant tables.
The output from the postinstallation-script (using rpm) is:
+ mysql_install_db -IN-RPM
Creating db table
Creating host table
Creating user table
Creating func table
Creating tables_priv table
Creating columns_priv table
Installation of grant tables failed!
I also tried to do this manually.
The logs only say when the server started and ended, nothing else.
When I start mysqld I got the message:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I also get this message if I run /usr/sbin/mysqld --skip-grant &
I don't know what to do. (???)
When I run gdb with the coredump as input I get:
Core was generated by `/usr/sbin/mysqld'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

When I do run I get:
(gdb) run --skip-grant
Starting program: /usr/sbin/mysqld --skip-grant
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The same output is generated if I don't use --skip-grant.
