>Description:
Configuration, compilation, and 'make install' all worked perfectly, but when I
moved on to the next step, things start to break. The command in question is:
'scripts/mysql_install_db'
Here is the output:
bash-2.02$ scripts/mysql_install_db
Creating db table
Creating host table
Creating user table
Creating func table
Creating tables_priv table
Creating columns_priv table
ERROR: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax near ';' at line 1
Installation of grant tables failed!
Examine the logs in /production/mysql/var for more information.
You can also try to start the mysqld demon with:
/production/mysql/libexec/mysqld --skip-grant &
You can use the command line tool
/production/mysql/bin/mysql to connect to the mysql
database and look at the grant tables:
shell> /production/mysql/bin/mysql -u root mysql
mysql> show tables
Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths. Using --log
gives you a log in /production/mysql/var that may be helpful.

and the manual section that describes problems on your OS.

bash-2.02$
I have tried to do the same tasks as mysql_install_db does manually, but to no avail. The
same
thing happens. In fact, I tried to run this command: 'create table bar ( foo int)', and
it
failed with the same error.
(Oh, if you do respond, please make sure that 'jesse@stripped' is on the 'to:' list.
Thanks!)
