 Posted: Sat Oct 15, 2011 1:03 am Post subject: mysql-5.1.59 fails to configq |
 |
|
For some reason mysql failed on me, and I couldn't get it back online so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now I've even had to go as far as clearing out everything related to it and rebuilding.
But when I run emerge --config =dev-db/mysql-5.1.59 I get as far as entering in the root password and it fails with and error in the log about //usr/lib/mysql --basedir=/usr no such file or directery. I don't know why it's giving me this error and I don't know how to go about fixing it. Any thoughts?

The error from mysql_install_db.log is as follows
| Code: | | /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/mysql-5.1.59/temp/environment: line 3702: //usr/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr: No such file or directory |
The portage error is your typical error saying to check the log file and mysqld.err file.
and all the other log files are empty. I checked and /usr is there, as is /var/lib/mysql.

just run mysql_install_db as root, and make the password yourself

I've done that before. It doesn't do much, and when I do try to create databases after it tells me it can't do it.
Edit: It's now saying that I can't even set the password for root.

Maybe I've solved this problem temporarily.
The original error message is:
| Quote: |
~ # emerge --config =dev-db/mysql-5.1.59

The error from mysql_install_db.log is the same:
| Quote: | | /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/mysql-5.1.59/temp/environment: line 3688: //usr/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr: No such file or directory |
So, I modified the file /usr/portage/eclass/mysql-v2.eclass
| Code: |
--- mysql-v2.eclass.orig 2011-10-20 09:55:31.000000000 +0800
+++ mysql-v2.eclass 2011-10-20 09:54:46.000000000 +0800
@@ -641,7 +641,7 @@
pushd "${TMPDIR}" &>/dev/null
ewarn "test test"
- "${ROOT}/usr/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr" >"${TMPDIR}"/mysql_install_db.log 2>&1
+ /usr/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr >"${TMPDIR}"/mysql_install_db.log 2>&1
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
grep -B5 -A999 -i "ERROR" "${TMPDIR}"/mysql_install_db.log 1>&2
die "Failed to run mysql_install_db. Please review /var/log/mysql/mysqld.err AND ${TMPDIR}/mysql_install_db.log"
|
Then backup the environment.bz2 and re-run emerge --config :
| Code: |
mv /var/db/pkg/dev-db/mysql-5.1.59/environment.bz2 /var/db/pkg/dev-db/mysql-5.1.59/environment.bz2.bak
emerge --config =dev-db/mysql-5.1.59
|
This workaround work for me. |

I had the same problem with mysql_install_db :
| Quote: |
/var/tmp/portage/dev-db/mysql-5.1.59/temp/environment: line 3782: //usr/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr: No such file or directory
|
Just as ykai said, I also had to change mysql-v2.eclass and remove ${ROOT} param. Afterwards everything worked as expected.
btw, i filed a bug @ https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388673

Similar problem here. Except that I'm still on dev-db/mysql-5.1.58-r1
Same fix.
