Guide for installing mysql under Fedora8

According to the step-by-step installation of mysql under Fedora7, some problems occurred while installing mysql in Fedora 8. After finding the cause, I finally solved the problem. Remember.

I download the latest mysql-5.0.45-linux-i686.tar.gz

Installation Process:

Su to root permission.

# Tar-zvxf mysql-5.0.45-linux-i686.tar.gz

# Music mysql-5.0.45 // usr/local/mysql

# Cd/usr/local/mysql

# Groupadd mysql

# Useradd-g mysql

# Chown-R mysql.

# Chgrp-R mysql.

# Scripts/mysql_install_db -- user = mysql

# Chown-R root.

# Chown-R mysql data

# Bin/mysqld_safe -- user = mysql &

According to the official documentation, this should be enabled, but the following error is reported:

Nohup: ignoring input and redirecting stderr to stdout

One section is as follows:
