Hello,<br>
<br>
<br>
Am I trying the impossible here or ?<br>
<br>
I try to get Mysql-shareware running on win 98 SE with the <br>
Active State perl (new) and Xitami webserver.<br>
I know nothing about unix, linux.<br>
<br>
I try to mimic my webservers environment so I installed: <br>
mysql in c:/usr/local/musql<br>
as perl is in c:/usr/local/bin<br>
<br>
Getting tired of all the typing and for ease of use <br>
(the server needs its basedir given at the ccommandline)<br>
I rename d mysql-shareware in mysqld this didn't work so.<br>
I installed it all new with all the default settings and <br>
cleaned the registry.<br>
<br>
<br>
so that:<br>
<br>
basedir is c:/mysql/<br>
datadir is c:/xitami/webpages/softweb/cgi-bin/data/<br>
and also added c:\mysql\bin to my path in autoexec.bat<br>
<br>
<br>
but then:<br>
<br>
C:/>cd \mysql\bin<br>
C:/>mysqld-shareware<br>
<br>
Ctrl-Alt-Del yes musqld-shareware is running<br>
<br>
C:/>mysqlshow nothing only the helpscreen rolls out and that <br>
happens with all programms in the mysql\bin dir.<br>
The windows MuSqlManager can't delete or connect <br>
to anything but the topics Test and Mysql can expand<br>
into their keys.<br>
<br>
C:/>mysqlshow -u root mysql <br>
C:/>mysqladmin version status proc<br>
C:/>mysql test <br>
C:/>mysqladmin ping<br>
<br>
mysqladmin -u root shutdown doesnt work<br>
server can only be killed with Ctrl-Alt-Del<br>
<br>
Question can mysql(shareware) run on win98?<br>
and if so <br>
how should it be installed (maybe it is enough when <br>
you send me the cnf's of a working win98 installation?)<br>
<br>
