Hello,

Just installed mysql on a solaris 9.
it resides int the directory mysql-standard-4.0.20-sun-solaris2.9-sparc.
was root when installing mysql.

did run the script configure.
then created a group called 'mysql' and a user called 'mysql'.
tried to launch the server by kicking ' mysqld_safe user mysql' being a root when doing that. And I get the following.

./mysqld_safe -user mysql
./mysqld_safe: my_print_defaults: not found
./mysqld_safe: my_print_defaults: not found
The file /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable
Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart
this script from there as follows:
./bin/mysqld_safe.
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqld_safe.html for more
information

must I create a directory called myql instead of mysql-standard-4.0.20-sun-solaris2.9-sparc. or create mysql as a ln ?

pliiz help me, i
