Hi Guys,
I installed CentOS 6 and installed 'yum install mysql mysql-devel mysql-server'
When I try and start MySQL I get: 120206 16:42:07 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql /usr/libexec/mysqld: Table 'mysql.plugin' doesn't exist 120206 16:42:07 [ERROR] Can't open the mysql.plugin table. Please run mysql_upgrade to create it. 120206 16:42:07 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 44233 120206 16:42:07 [ERROR] Fatal error: Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist 120206 16:42:07 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid ended
if I go look in /var/lib/mysql I see:
-rw-rw----. 1 mysql mysql 10485760 Feb 5 16:53 ibdata1 -rw-rw----. 1 mysql mysql 5242880 Feb 6 16:42 ib_logfile0 -rw-rw----. 1 mysql mysql 5242880 Feb 5 16:33 ib_logfile1 drwx------. 2 mysql mysql 4096 Feb 5 16:55 mysql drwx------. 2 mysql mysql 4096 Feb 5 16:55 test
and the 'mysql' is empty.
I dont understand, I have never had this issue. I assume that the 'mysql' directory should contain something?
So with this, I cannot do anything to get MySQL going!
I tried a 'yum upgrade' to make sure everything was up to date.
[root@www mysql]# cat /etc/*release* CentOS release 6.2 (Final) cat: /etc/lsb-release.d: Is a directory CentOS release 6.2 (Final) CentOS release 6.2 (Final) cpe:/o:centos:linux:6:GA
Any thoughts? -Jason
