Starting MySQL at boot
Most recently from Slackware, I am unfamiliar with Suse boot sequence. I have placed mysql start/stop script in /etc/init.d and linked it to K14mysql and S20mysql in rc3.d. But it still doesn't start at bootup. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Without an actual error message or similar description it will be very hard to help you. But here are some suggestions. Are you sure you are using runlevel 3? Otherwise those 2 links will do nothing. Did you use SuSE's MySQL packages? If you did, you don't have to make your own init scripts or even run mysql_install_db. And best of all: Apache, PHP, and MySQL works together out of the box. Get back to us with more data, and we might be able to help you. Regards Ole
I used rpms from the MySQL site. I am using the SuSE 7.1 Personal ed., and I can find no rpms for MySQL on my cds. Is the SuSE MySQL rpm only available in the Professional ed?
Well, it is a database server and you have what is effectively the workstation version. You can download all those rpm's from the ftp if you wish. * Albert Wagner (alwagner@tcac.net) [010403 10:55]: =>I used rpms from the MySQL site.
