References: <379ACD46.69BB36E4@giovannelli.it> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Thanks to everyone for the lot of answers about my problem... Now I have the socket. :-) I also discovered the problem was also pointed out in the manual. But it was not so easy to find it. I am not an expert user and very difficult I could associate the MIT-pthreads (which are for me a very obscure thing right now :-) to the fact my socket don't come out... Perhaps when the new port of MySql is coming out we can think to improve with a more verbose note that can point out better the problem... So instead of only : "You may set NATIVE_THREADS (make NATIVE_THREADS=yes) to compile mysql with the native FreeBSD threads (libc_r). Warning: There are still some bugs in libc_r which prevent 'mysqladmin shutdown' from working properly and killing mysqld might not work." I think we can add also a line explaing that if you don't use this NATIVE_THREADS opt you can't use the socket as well.. Thanks very much to everyone who has kindly answered me... -- Regards...
