gizmola Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Probably need to run this as root, or su\'d as root. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/860-darwin-permission-denied/#findComment-2863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgm_03 Posted August 10, 2003 Author Share Posted August 10, 2003 You\'re right. I tried this and while it didn\'t work, at least all the rejection stopped.

effigy Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 look in your data folder for a file called hostname.err: it will provide you with further details of why this is happening. you may also want to append an & to the end of your command, so the database will not take up your terimnal screen.

mgm_03 Posted August 10, 2003 Author Share Posted August 10, 2003 Thank you. In the data directory I only found a file called: Mark\'s-Computer.local..err I don\'t know why there are two periods between local and err? Anyway I\'ve tried to open the file using : vi Marks-Computer.local.err (No terminal database found) this is so painful Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/860-darwin-permission-denied/#findComment-2868 Share on other sites More sharing options...
effigy Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 you may need to specify where your databases are... for example i use: ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data & Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/860-darwin-permission-denied/#findComment-2874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgm_03 Posted August 11, 2003 Author Share Posted August 11, 2003 After alot of frustration and searching the web everywhere, I gave up and went to Marc L\'s site again. I used his script to remove the files and then started a new download/install all over again. upon issuing: mark% sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe& I\'m asked for my Password ...on the same line I just typed and I can see the letters of my passwrod as I type WTF??? Next I try: mark% su root (enter password) mark# ./bin/mysqld_safe & I get: [Marks-Computer:/usr/local/mysql] mark# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data 030811 16:12:53 mysqld ended I check the err log file ... 030811 16:12:52 mysqld started 030811 16:12:52 Can\'t start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use 030811 16:12:53 Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 3306 ? 030811 16:12:53 Aborting 030811 16:12:53 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete 030811 16:12:53 mysqld ended ----------------------------------- Then I did a google search on the entire line containing \"Do you already...3306?\". I read on the University of Washington website (Washington) that I need to create/edit a .my.cnf file. Then select a different port and put the file in my home directory. So, this is what I put into the .my.cnf file: [mysqld] port=3305 socket=/Users/mark/mysql.sock basedir=/Users/mark/mysql datadir=/Users/mark/mysql/data [client] port=3305 socket=/Users/mark/mysql.sock So I used port 3305 instead of 3306. I checked /Users/mark directory and the file is there with (rw_r__r__ permissions). It does not appear that the file had any effect. I get the same message when I run mark# ./bin/mysqld_safe& [Marks-Computer:/usr/local/mysql] mark# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data 030811 16:42:50 mysqld ended Also, I couldn\'t sudo because the same thing happened with my password (see above). So, I switched to mark# to get to where I am now....which is virtually where I started Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/860-darwin-permission-denied/#findComment-2912 Share on other sites More sharing options...
effigy Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 are you installing this on a box that already has mysql prepackaged? http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3445 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/860-darwin-permission-denied/#findComment-2913 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgm_03 Posted August 11, 2003 Author Share Posted August 11, 2003 no...I just bought a Powerbook with 10.2.6 ...MySQL is not installed My first install of MySQL was succesful until last week...don\'t know what changed but I noticed the problem when I tried to install phpMyAdmin. Upon trying to get into mysql , nothing was workng. Don\'t know if it\'s due to PMA or that\'s just coincidence.
