Help with mySQL
I apologize for this crosspost, but I have a mySQL question ( I think general pc wasn't the right place to post it). I've just downloaded mySQL and need help with it.
I have the WinmySQLAdmin1.4 interface opened up, I'm on the database screen. Now I should be able to create databases, edit them, create tables, etc. But I'm unable to.
When I right click in the database screen, I only get "Flush Hosts" "Flush Logs" "Flush Tables" while I should be getting something like "Create db" "Drop Db" etc.
Also, what is
mysqld-opt
mysqld-max
mysqld
??

Um, MySQL Control Center is a helluva lot better than MySQLAdmin... could sort your problem out?

you are correct mendhak, you should be able to creat db, edit db etc... but you have to have it running first. if it is not running you can't do all that. since you are on win98 you have to start it manually each time.
open a dos window and change directories to mysql/bin folder. usually
c:\mysql\bin
and then when you are there type this
mysqld
it should go away or go back to the prompt. once back at the prompt type in mysql and it should be running. if not then you have some editting to do as far as making a root and password.
