I have a virtual machine (VirtualBox) with Ubuntu 9.10 installed, I'm trying to install MySql community editor using the linux-generic package (the tar package), I followed all the procedure but I had a problem with the next line of code:
shell> scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
I don't understand a lot about the command line, but I think this line of code is used to create the basic tables of the database (users and so on). the problem I got with this line of code is:
FATAL ERROR: Could not find mysqld
I googled it and after a while I found this blog:
azimbabu.blogspot.com/2009/07/mysql-5136-in-ubuntu-904-fatal-error.html
The blog says that the problem is a default instalation of SQL, and the solution is replace the file my.cnf in the location /etc/mysql for other file that comes with the package.
I didn't replace the file my.cnf, I only changed the name and it woked perfectly, and this is the problem, I don't understand why it worked.
Any one knows why this file is so important?What could happen if I delete this file?what is the purpose of the package mysql-common un Ubuntu?
After the upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, all was well. But after the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, I lost the MySQL server. Now, I recall during the upgrade, I was asked if I wanted to keep the existing my.cnf file or replace it with a newer one. I did as suggested and kept the original as I had edited it before. The same question was asked with a couple other config files. I kept the original in each case. After the first step, I checked the server was running and the websites were up, all was well. After the update to 9.10, when I checked the server, I get the following error:
Code: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists! Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting this resolved?
I'm the lead Dev of GnackTrack and we're having issues with running MySQL on the LiveDVD.Once installed everything works fine, mysql can be connected to but when using the liveDVD we get the following error:
Code:
root@root:~# mysql ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) Contents of /etc/mysql/my.cf point to /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock but because this is a liveDVD the actual file is located in: /rofs/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
I need some help.Trying to set up bugzilla on my VM.After setting up the IP to use static i could log on to the url its not even loading up from command line its issueing an error.when i try to log on to mysql
bugzilla:~# mysql -u root mysql] ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
so I was trying to do sheduled updates on server, which is doing xen virtualization doing kernel update (to 2.6.18-164.el5xen) i got the following error:
Running Transaction Installing : kernel-xen [1/1] grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
and of course new kernel doesn't appears in grub.conf and don't know what is cause of this problem last kernel i was updateting in August and as i remember everything went just fine:
current kernel: 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Aug 4 21:33:24 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux #cat /boot/grub/grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda
[code]....
also could it be because running kernel is removed?also could it be because of LABEL entry, not /dev/... ( as i found out it was such bug, some years time ago)
I'm trying to build a program called Obpager, but I'm getting an error saying I don't have xlib.h. From what I understand, that file is included in libx11-dev, which I have installed. Any idea?
Code:

I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS to host a moodle server in a school.. moodle is running OK - but I'm having problems with MySql Any mysql command generates:
I've taken a look in unknown variable 'pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/ and there is no mysqld.pid file I have followed these instructions that I found elsewhere:
If there�s no mysqld.pid inside /var/run/mysqld directory, create mysqld.pid # cd /var/run/mysqld # touch mysqld.pid
[code]....
But after reboot the mysqld.pid file is missing again.. I can access mysql via phpmyadmin - but webmin fails with unknown variable 'pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid'
I installed mysqld with yum then yum quit working with this error:http://yum.baseurl.org/ticket/70 when mysqld is stopped yum works again. what does a running instance of mysqld have in common with a python yum package manager?
I have Centos 5.1 and im a total newbie. I have managed to get it running with Apache and PHP but after I install mysql it fails to start with the above error. I have removed it as well using YUM and reinstalled it but it still will not start.
I've installed the CentOS 5.1 from a CD only yesterday and everything is working fine except Mysql that came from the CD distribution. I have detected that my system has mysql.
[root@onion /]# rpm -qa |grep mysql mysql-5.0.22-2.1.0.1 [root@onion /]# find . -name mysql ./usr/bin/mysql ./usr/share/mysql ./usr/lib/mysql
However I'm unable to find mysqld, safe_mysqld or mysql_install_db in my filesysytem.
i have ubuntu karmic 9.10 and when i try to update anything or install anything the a very similar error occurs."(Reading database . . . 55%dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error , aborting: files list file for package `com.palm.net.precoddr.fcoaster' contains empty filenameit repeats this message 3 times then gives up i believe.
I have installed Mysql in Ubuntu 9, for the use of roundcube database.After installing iam getting the error like this
* Stopping MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ] * Starting MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ] * Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables.
So because of this in the roundcube configuration its giving the error message that MYSQL is not installed. So Kindly give me a idea how to solve this.
i'm not the most knowlegable person but i have successfully installed mysql in the past. but now that i am attempting to install it again i'm getting this error during installation. has anyone seen this before?
mysql error: *Starting MySQL database server mysqld [fail] invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.0 (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Xorg seems to crash randomly and with no real reason. Once it does, I can't restart it. If I try to restart it with GDM, nothing will happen. However once it crashes, Ubuntu's low graphics mode window pops up. Telling it to reconfigure the xorg config seems to do nothing for my problem. I will still crash after words.
Right now I'm running in an earlier kernel, hoping this will keep it from crasgubg
for some reason my first updating was interrupted and from then i cannot update. i get the following message:

when I try to open Banshee I get an error message telling me that the disk is malformed and then Banshee closes itself (faster than I can copy and paste the exact error). I did some searching and apparently it's caused by the configuration file, but I did a complete removal of Banshee from the package manager, restarted the computer, and re-installed Banshee, but it's still giving me the error.

I am having trouble installing the 10.04 RC On my desktop the installer just crashes with a fatal error, before you get to the first screen of the installation process, where you choose to run as live cd or install. On my Laptop i am trying to Install alongside my current 9.10 installation and i keep getting the errors illustrated in the screenies. It is all probably down to my stupidity, but if it is not then this is very worrying 1less than a week before release.
This box is running 10.04 server, it's been running perfectly for almost 6 weeks. It's only function in life is running MailArchiva which is an ediscovery package, runs very well. Anyhow, yesterday the boss tells me he wants to do something else so the last thing I did was an apt-get update and an apt-get upgrade, no errors were observed, I seem to remember like 8 updates were available, this is what I've normally done in the past to keep it current. The last thing I did after that was shutdown -r now.
This morning I can't get into the box, I reconnected a monitor to it and this is the error I'm getting when it stops after about 9 lines into the boot process; modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.32-24-server/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device. This is a mystery to me, the system is not encrypted. The only stuff that is belongs to MailArchiva. Anyhow someone evidently made off with my install cd so I am downloading another to see if I can repair this but I have no idea what broke.
I upgraded Ubuntu from version 10.04 to 10.10. When the upgrade completed I was asked to reboot. After reboot I simply got the message "error: file not found" on the screen. After a few seconds the machine rebooted.
I guess it is the boot loader that was not found. Is there some hope of fixing this problem?
I just installed Maverick on a brand new system last Saturday. Everything worked, except dual monitors, so I activated the proprietary ATI/AMD driver. That allowed the dual monitors to work, except that it put a little "AMD unsupported hardware" watermark in the lower right-hand side of each screen. After a day or two, I decided to go back to the default driver while trying to figure out how to avoid the watermark.
I assumed that when I deactivated/removed the proprietary driver that it would automatically switch back to the default. Instead, my computer now boots to TTY1, and when I try to install xserver.xorg, etc., I get a lot of error messages,ike "No screens found" or "Screens found, but configuration is unusable," etc. The same messages show up in the logs.Can anyone help me get back to a useable desktop display? At this point, I don't care which one. erhaps the proprietary would be easiest since it seems to be holding my system hostage, but either one would work.
Ubuntu 10.10 Whenever I try to boot up now I get a command line environment instead of the normal gnome desktop. The first error message that comes up is: "Screens found,but none have a usable configuration" further down: "Fatal server error: no screens found" Any way I can re-configure so it detects my monitor?
I'm using with success NX server and client on Ubuntu 11.04 on both side. Yesterday the server crashed and now the client can't connect to it. The client works well because if I try to connect to an other server it works well and if I try to connect to this server with an other user it works well. So I think that there is a problem with my user. I have tried to solve the problem as explained in the details of the error. Unfortunately there is no file /var/log/messages so I can't search the code of the exception.

I've installed 9.10 on a work station with success. I've got an nvidia quadro fx 3000 and its supported under nvidia legacy driver apparently. So I've tried to install the driver with no success. Xorg.0.log reports a fatal server error no screens found. I get a flashing console login when I boot with "nvidia" device driver in xorg.conf, it boots fine with "nv". No matter what I try I cant get it to boot with nvidia drivers. Also, on a side note, after initially installing nvidia driver thru hardware in gnome, I no longer have a grub loader option to select recovery or anything else. Upon boot it displays "grub" briefly then continues to boot to gui. I've set the delay to 20 seconds with no results.
Resolved the issue of the display, now on to the grub menu.
