http://askubuntu.com – I want to install MySql 5.1 on ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. The reason for MySql 5.1 is that I want to use it with SQLAlchemy (python) which does not support MySql 5.5. If I try to search repository there is only MySql 5.5. I tried sudo apt-get install mysql-server=5.1.58 but E: Version ‘5.1.66’ for ‘mysql-server’ was not found I found package on this page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.1/5.1.66-0ubuntu0.11.10.2 and downloaded it. I have a problem with installing it. Is there an option for apt-get to read from the directory? (HowTos)

I'm trying to install MySQL 5.5 on Ubuntu 12.04, but I'm stuck with this error:

How I can install mysql in ubuntu 12.04(gnome 3). So that I will have my mysql installation in /usr/bin/mysql

It's library and header files in /usr/lib/mysql and /usr/include/mysql respectively.

Last time I tried sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common The mysql has been installed in /usr/bin/mysql.

I can not install or remove anything whether from Software center or Terminal.

apt-get install -f can not fix the problem!

Software center shows below message:

The package system is broken

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

mysql-server-5.5: PreDepends: mysql-common (>= 5.5.24-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) but 5.5.24-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is installed Depends: mysql-client-5.

I think yum is having problems installing MySQL 5.1 because there is already a pre-existing MySQL 5.5 installation.

I wanted to cleanly remove MySQL 5.5 (I had problems with 5.5 with PHP and Python).

I have deployed Ubuntu 12.04 on the Amazon Cloud and I am trying to install Nagios and Nconf, while following this guide.

MySql - mysql-workbench problem 2 years 43 weeks ago

Hi Guys,

I am looking to use the mysql tool mysql-workbench to administer mysql.

I downloaded the latest version from the MySql website, the fedora rpm. I used rpm2tgz to create a slackware package. Install seemed to go okay.

When I tried to run the mysql-workbench tool I got the following message.

I installed apache and php from source and got them working together a month ago. Because I'm learning both of them this term. Now I need mysql to do more works. And I installed mysql from source just now. However I don't know how to let it work with php. I looked around and found some topics on setting up LAMP environment.

I've tried it all (removing all the packages associated with MySQL) but keep getting stuff like this:

Preconfiguring packages ... (Reading database ...

I can start mysql fine,

/usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start Starting MySQL SUCCESS!

But any mysql action after that I get the error: MySQL server PID file could not be found

/usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server stop ERROR! MySQL server PID file could not be found!

Where do I find the server PID file on Mac with OSX 10.8? I am wondering if it is a permission problem.
