A reference to this error log was in the message that appeared when the "sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db5" command to create the initial tables failed.
Since I converted to Leopard, I am using a MySQL binary install until I can get around to doing the whole MacPorts install, but basically depending upon whether it's a MacPorts install or not the only thing that should really change is the path to the script :
(your path to where the script is located would be different than mine) In my case when I am using : shell> $ cd /usr/local/mysql shell> /usr/local/mysql $ sudo ./scripts/mysql_install_db I'm not quite sure why you are using "sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db5" following "sudo" there should be a command, not a switch "-u" As I recall, for the MacPorts install you might try : shell> $ sudo mysql_install_db5 --user=mysql I assume your $PATH includes /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin if you are not sure, cd into it... shell> $ cd /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin shell> /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/ $ sudo mysql_install_db5 --user=mysql Best Regards, Bill Hernandez Plano, Texas _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
