http://serverfault.com – I originally installed mySQL on OSX and it started fine. I was able to connect with mySQL workbench and create a database. However, after a reboot mySQL will no longer start. The launch fails with the following message taken from the error log: [ERROR] /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: unknown option '--skip-locking' Also checked the activity monitor and there is no other mySQL process running. Thanks for your help. (HowTos)

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.

Remove services from upstart 41 weeks 6 days ago

I have mysql installed (from repos) on a development machine (laptop) and I don't need the daemon running on every boot. I've copied /etc/init/mysql.conf to /etc/init/mysql.conf.old and then removed everything following the "start on" line.

I've just installed MySql to support a mediawiki install on 12.04 64bit. Everything appears to be working ok, except that at boot-up, mysql server fails to start. This results in an error appearing on the webpage:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

When I discover this, and run

sudo service mysql start

It all works ok after that until the next reboo

mysqld fails on F16 41 weeks 6 days ago

I have installed mysql and phpmyadmin via, yum. I get the message

#2002 - Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured).

The problem though, is with mysql itself.

# service mysqld start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start mysqld.service Job failed.

I'm on Windows 7 with MySQL Workbench 5.2.44 CE trying to connect to MySQL database at a remote Ubuntu 12.04.1 server using "Standard TCP/IP over SSH" feature of MySQL Workbench with a passphrased SSH key.
