hi, i never installed mysql from ports but it seems that you're missing starting tables. when you install mysql from sources, you run a script that will create this tables for you (under scripts dir, it's called mysql_installdb i think ). my advise is to download source code from mysql site and install it. follow the procedure in install file and you wont have no problem. what FreeBSD do you have (3.x, 4.x)? I hope this helps. alex On Wed, 25 Oct 2000, Kazu Kimura wrote: > Hello, > > I am a beginner of FreeBSD and MySQL. > > I have installed MySQL 3.22 client& server with pkg_add.
