Greetings,
I wanted to enable blackhole and CSV engine in the mysql server so downloaded the SRPM from Centos Site, setup the rpmbuild envronment with mighty help from the our own Russ's Owlriver website and tried building it. I have a 5.2 centos box on which I need to enable this so took the 5.2 SRPM (mysql-5.0.45-7.el5.src.rpm) from vault.centos.org.(mysql
The Build did not complete throwing errors during testing about unable to connect using ssl or something.
I tried from 5.4 SRPM at least the build went thru.
Was 5.0.45 srpm broken? or did I get it horribly wrong somewhere as it is my first attempt to build from srpm.
Now I have a situation wherein the PHDs refuse to work with the Mysql 5.0.77 (y'know those typical silly scared rabbits who will never move from status quo no matter what)
I fished around and found that there was a BIG thread on this issue. I understand it is a upstream issue.
But in the EOD, I need a tested stuff not homegrown one (according to the PHDs and I am new in this job, never mind I will be completing 26 years in IT field on 3rd Feb...).
Has anybody come across this error? if so how it was mitigated?
The issue here is we need to show it working on centos and then when going live the production will be switched over to RHEL (Sorry Centos guys... That's the way this Indian (1/6th) part of the world goes about: kinda "successful POC first and then I give hard cash").
Thanks and Regards,
Rajagopal
