I have followed a direction for installing mysql4.1.7 and at the end of it,
when I try to get in I get error 2003.
Mysql starts and then terminates after a short while. Can someone tell me
what I am doing wrong or is there a simpler way to install this program?
I followed the instruction here:
http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/mybasic.htm
However, the file that was created for my.cnf was quite confusing
At one time, the error I was getting was:
Fatal error: Can't open privilege tables: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist
Once I started the server per instruction #11, I did not know how to get to
mysql prompt. I thought I had to login and each time I tried login in, I get
the following error message.
CAn someone help please?
