Mysql setup on server install - but it's no there

[Jody Cleveland]

Ok, this is strange. I looked in init.d, and no mysql anywhere. I tried
installing the mysql rpm, and it says it's missing the client, so I
install the client. Still can't install server though. So, I tried  rpm
-i MySQL-server-4.0.18-0.i386.rpm and it gives me a bunch of these:

file /usr/share/mysql/swedish/errmsg.sys from install of
MySQL-server-4.0.18-0 conflicts with file from package mysql-3.23.58-1
        file /usr/share/mysql/swedish/errmsg.txt from install of
MySQL-server-4.0.18-0 conflicts with file from package mysql-3.23.58-1 

So, I can't seem to install it even. And from that message, doesn't it
sound like it's all ready on there?

Jody,

I typically install mysql from source code on mysql.com. It looks like
you have a client side version of mysql installed. Check under
/etc/init.d/ and look for a file that has mysql in it. If not, it looks
like you aren't setup for mysql server in which case you'll have to
install it. Try pulling the latest and greatest stable rpm of mysql and
follow the docs. It is fairly straight forward...

Hi Steve,

# updatedb
# find / -name mysql

Did the update, then the find command gave me this:

/etc/webmin/mysql
/usr/share/mysql
/usr/bin/mysql
/usr/include/mysql
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DBD/mysql
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/caldera/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/mscstyle3/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/mysql

> You could also look for the mysql rpm as well ->
# rpm qa | grep mysql

That just returned to the command prompt. Does that mean it's not
installed? If so, why would the package manager say it was? And one
more, what's the best way to get it installed?

Thank you for your time with this.

- Jody
