Besides the issue mentioned in #c0 (mysql_install_db is deprecated), there's another issue caused by wrong parameters order. In according to MySQL docs [1] the argument --defaults-file must be the first. More info about the initializing in MySQL 5.7 on [2] The initialization command that worked for me was `mysqld --defaults-file=/home/mik/.local/share/digikam/mysql.conf --initialize --datadir=/home/mik/.local/share/digikam/db_data --server-id=1` [1] https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/option-file-options.html [2] https://mysqlserverteam.com/initialize-your-mysql-5-7-instances-with-ease/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
