i set up a home dedicated server, i followed a how to forge fedora 7 guide and it worked well on my other server, ive installed it on my second server and everything is working well other than mysql i cannot get it to install and it keeps telling me that files are missing,

i use these commands to run the instilation :-

yum install mysql mysql-devel mysql-server

then i get this:-

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
fedora 100% |=========================| 2.1 kB 00:00
primary.sqlite.bz2 100% |=========================| 3.8 MB 00:06
updates 100% |=========================| 1.9 kB 00:00
Nothing to do

then i use this command as instructed:-

chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on
/etc/init.d/mysqld start

and i get this error:-

chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on
error reading information on service mysqld: No such file or directory
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
-bash: /etc/init.d/mysqld: No such file or directory

so now im stuck on what to do next because if it wont let me install it what do i do ? reinstall the Os or is there a way to fix this problem ?

I have fixed my original problem but now i have got this error:-



Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.10.2

Probably reason of this is that you did not create configuration file. You might want to use setup script to create one.

Error
MySQL said:

#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)

if anyone at all can help me out it would be very appretiated

[rick0607]

ok i fixed that error but now im getting this error:-


Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.10.2

Probably reason of this is that you did not create configuration file. You might want to use setup script to create one.

Error
MySQL said:

#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)


phpMyAdmin was unable to read your configuration file!
This might happen if PHP finds a parse error in it or PHP cannot find the file.
Please call the configuration file directly using the link below and read the PHP error message(s) that you receive. In most cases a quote or a semicolon is missing somewhere.
If you receive a blank page, everything is fine.

./config.inc.php


does anyone have any ideas or tips cos this is really confusing me now

[this213]

You have to open your the config.inc.php file found in the root directory of your phpMyAdmin installation and edit it to match your MySQL credentials

[rick0607]

already done all that

Apparently not with the correct values - are you sure you edited the correct file?

chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on
error reading information on service mysqld: No such file or directory
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
-bash: /etc/init.d/mysqld: No such file or directory
