RE: Troubles with mysql-server installation

["Adrian Michael Nida" <nida@xxxxxxxx>]

Sdav,

This is just a thought.  I noticed that /usr/pkg/libexec/mysqld is looking
for ./mysql/host.frm.  However, it's located in /var/mysql/host.frm.  I'm
wondering if you were to move that file (or link it) to
/usr/pkg/libexec/mysqld/mysql/host.frm would it work better.

Good luck,

Adrian
