Gowator Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 edit: Still having the same problem in MDK although the e-smith install went perfectly. Checked the PHPBB forum too but only similar problem was with RH and the fix was to download updated RPM's Yep, I guess this is the place to ask. Last night I installed PHPBB2 from the install Cd's (Mdk 9.0) rpmdrake via urpmi found the deps for mysql. When I try and start mysql the daemon starts then dies ... Any hints ....

3lade Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 I found this problem with 9. It would say it is trying to start, then die and claim it had failed. I never found out why it did it but by using Webmin I found that MySQL had started. I know it dont help you but might be worth while checking by Webmin to see if it was started or not.

Guest anon Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 That version of phpbb you have also has some bugs/security flaws. The latest version is 2.0.4 http://phpbb.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted June 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 I finally got a phone line today :-) So I should be able to : Jeez the list is so long what will I do first. 247 security updates (and counting). I had the same with squid after using the Mdk proxy wizard. Wiped out the Mdk config and redid it with webmin and it worked. (oh and created a squid user since mkd proxy wiz was setting it up as root.) The mysql stuff however won't start becuase it exists but I did try from Webmin :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted July 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose Well my 100 mhz Pentium is tired running the BB so I decided to move it. So back to install under mkd. Well, back to the above prob.... this time its the latest phpBB2 .. mysql was installed from CD, urmpi didn't find anythig newer. (4.0.11a-gamma) mysql is running, I can connect as root ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
