ok, I am pretty new at using redhat and linux in general and am trying to set up a mysql server. when installing redhat I chose to install mysql. I can get mysql_install_db to work, but when I try and start the server I get:
[root@65 mysql]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
011102 14:28:03 mysqld ended
[1]+ Done safe_mysqld
I looked in the log files and it looks like it's not finding the host.frm file. I looked in the archives on this site and it seems the solution is to run chown on mysql files. I have tried several times using chown, but am unfamiliar with it and where to run it for it to have any affect.
Thanks in advance for your help
