Previously i was working on Mandriva linux 9.1 and mysql is running well on that. Now i have installed Mandriva Linux 2006 and i am facing the problem in starting mysql. After the completion of the installation of mysql as i type: /home/ankur/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start i am receiving a error message like: Starting MySql....................ERROR Please help me rearding this problem. Is there any specific Hardware Requirements for Mandriva Linux 2006 or what can be the case. Thanx Ankur Agarwal
Gurudutt Verma	Thursday 09 February 2006 5:09:22 am Hi Ankur Please see your TMP and TMPDIR environment variable. That should be like TMP=/tmp TMPDIR=/tmp to see that you can use following commands echo $TMP echo $TMPDIR or env to fix this use following commands. export TMP=/tmp export TMPDIR=/tmp many time /tmp directory also create some problem if it does not have proper access permission. I guess that should fix your problem. All the Best !

Hi Ankur

Please see your TMP and TMPDIR environment variable.

That should be like

TMP=/tmp
TMPDIR=/tmp

to see that you can use following commands

echo $TMP
echo $TMPDIR
or
env

to fix this use following commands.

export TMP=/tmp
export TMPDIR=/tmp

many time /tmp directory also create some problem if it does not have proper access permission.

I guess that should fix your problem.

All the Best !
