Following a new installation of openSUSE 12.2, I'm trying to get a LAMP server running, and I've hit a problem with the mysql server. I restored the contents of /var/lib/mysql from a backup. When I use YaST
System Services (Runlevel) to start the mysql server, it returns 1 (unspecified error).
The contents of /var/log/mysql/mysqld.log are: ----- 121108 09:51:30 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql /usr/sbin/mysqld: File './mysql-bin.index' not found (Errcode: 13) 121108 9:51:30 [ERROR] Aborting 121108 9:51:30 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown complete 121108 09:51:30 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/run/mysql/mysqld.pid ended ----- /var/lib/mysql contains a number of files named mysql-bin.0000nn and a file named mysql-bin.index So, I can't understand why it won't run :( Thanks, Bob -- Bob Williams System: Linux 3.4.11-2.16-desktop Distro: openSUSE 12.2 (x86_64) with KDE Development Platform: 4.9.2 "release 511" Uptime: 06:00am up 6 days 13:31, 4 users, load average: 0.21, 0.28, 0.27 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
