From the mySQL website:
* For Linux, if you install MySQL using RPM distributions, use the
regular MySQL-server RPM first to install a standard server named
mysqld. Then use the MySQL-Max RPM to install a server named mysqld-max.
The MySQL-Max RPM presupposes that you have already installed the
regular server RPM. See Section 2.4, "Installing MySQL on Linux" for
more information on the Linux RPM packages.
I've installed MySQL-Max-4.1.9-0.i386.rpm, as per the instructions, and
nada. In fact, this RPM appears to only contain two files!:
# rpm -ql -p MySQL-Max-4.1.9-0.i386.rpm
/usr/lib/mysql/mysqld-max.sym
/usr/sbin/mysqld-max
What's the story here?
