creating a database and where and how

[yaginuk]

hi,
sorry but still very green.
i've had a load of probs installing the application - the libjpeg.a problem with a dependancy, which one i didnt find out. the only way around that was to update redhat 9, then it went passed the libjpeg.a. i think they call it dependency hell....

my next obsticle is mysql creation, i've updates mysql and get a response from it.
i have created a use called mysql the the use of the database. i have successfully ./configured and gone through multi options about frame capture etc.

now i have to create the database, do i have to be in the directory of /download/tmp/zm-x.z.z.c and create it? and what is the right sequence ?

this is the output from mysql mysql < zmschema.sql

-?, --help Display this help and exit.
--auto-rehash Enable automatic rehashing. One doesn't need to use
'rehash' to get table and field completion, but startup
and reconnecting may take a longer time. Disable with
--disable-auto-rehash.
-A, --no-auto-rehash
No automatic rehashing. One has to use 'rehash' to get
table and field completion. This gives a quicker start of
mysql and disables rehashing on reconnect. WARNING:
options deprecated; use --disable-auto-rehash instead.
-B, --batch Print results with a tab as separator, each row on new
line. Doesn't use history file.
--character-sets-dir=name
Directory where character sets are.
--default-character-set=name
Set the default character set.
-C, --compress Use compression in server/client protocol.
-D, --database=name Database to use.
-e, --execute=name Execute command and quit. (Output like with --batch).

Named commands are disabled. Use \* form only, or use
named commands only in the beginning of a line ending
with a semicolon (;) Since version 10.9 the client now
starts with this option ENABLED by default! Disable with

line. WARNING: option deprecated; use
--disable-named-commands instead.
-G, --named-commands
Enable named commands. Named commands mean this program's
internal commands; see mysql> help . When enabled, the
named commands can be used from any line of the query,
otherwise only from the first line, before an enter.
Disable with --disable-named-commands. This option is
disabled by default.
-i, --ignore-spaces Ignore space after function names.
--local-infile Enable/disable LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE.
-b, --no-beep Turn off beep on error.
-h, --host=name Connect to host.
-H, --html Produce HTML output.

Don't write line number for errors. WARNING: -L is

option deprecated; use --disable-tee instead
-n, --unbuffered Flush buffer after each query.
--column-names Write column names in results.
-N, --skip-column-names
Don't write column names in results. WARNING: -N is
deprecated, use long version of this options instead.
-O, --set-variable=name
Change the value of a variable. Please note that this
option is deprecated; you can set variables directly with
--variable-name=value.
-o, --one-database Only update the default database. This is useful for
skipping updates to other database in the update log.
--pager[=name] Pager to use to display results. If you don't supply an
option the default pager is taken from your ENV variable
PAGER. Valid pagers are less, more, cat [> filename],
etc. See interactive help (\h) also. This option does not
work in batch mode.

Password to use when connecting to server. If password is
not given it's asked from the tty.
-P, --port=# Port number to use for connection.
--prompt=name Set the mysql prompt to this value.
-q, --quick Don't cache result, print it row by row. This may slow
down the server if the output is suspended. Doesn't use

The part where you say

[dave@localhost db]$ mysql mysql < zmschema.sql mysqluser

Did you really have an extra 'mysqluser' at the end? If so that may be your problem. Otherwise, check you can run just

<i>mysql mysql</i>

ok, and also check that zmschema.sql looks sensible and oesn't contain rubbish. The errors you got imply that it was objecting to a command line parameter rather than any SQL error though.

Phil,

hi phil,


well i can run mysql mysql this is the output

[dave@localhost db]$ mysql mysql
ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'mysql'

[yaginuk]

the reason i added mysqluser is the user dave has no sql access

and i thought adding the username at the end may give me access
like this
mysql mysql < zmschema.sql mysqluser

but it didnt work

[yaginuk]

have checked the file and all looks fine to me.(what do i know).
this is the content of the zmschema.sql file
