Databases

Once in a while, you may need to start MySQL manually, forcing an override of the normal process.

Here's how you do that:


# MANUALLY STARTING MySQL 4.x

To turn on mysql 4.x, you just have to go to your MySQL directory like so:
    cd /home/admin/mysql-standard-4.1.10a-pc-linux-gnu-i686

Then run:
    /usr/bin/safe_mysqld  --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf >/dev/null 2>&1 &

And that's it. MySQL should now be running.
