A couple questions since I'm not a Solaris person I really don't know how to
do the following and was hoping that someone could help me out (Google isn't
much help on this).
How does one start the MySQL daemon on Solaris 8? (it's running MySQL
3.23.49)
How does one tell Solaris 8 to start the MySQL daemon on boot?
Lastly, tried running /usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld but got the following
error:
<TIMESTAMPmysqld ended
Thanks for any help!

Hi,

Try

/usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe
to start MySQL

/usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe &
to start MySQL as a background process.

Thanks.

Hi,

/usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld must do good with MySQL 3.23.49.

The error may be due to either one.

a. configuration file set up
b. data directory - anything removed/modified - not enough disk space
c. log file size

Thanks,
ViSolve DB Team.

When you've got the first problem fixed

To have MySQL [or any application] restart at boot time, you need to
copying the start script to /etc/rc3.d

Start scripts in the rc3.d dir all start with 'S' followed by a
number, like: S53mysql.

As root, copy the
/ script to /etc/rc3.d, and
rename it as say S53mysql.

This should fix the boot problem.
