I tried that but it still gave me the same error. su-2.04# pkg_add mysql-server-3.23.38.tgz Sorry, the host 'crtntx1-ar3-088-078' could not be looked up. Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a correct hostname. If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart this script with the --force option I noticed its cutting off the end of the hostname. I do not get it. I tried putting a "." at the end of the hostname as well to no avail. ---- Jason > -----Original Message----- > From: Dan Nelson [mailto:dnelson@emsphone.com] > Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 23:00 > To: Jason Halbert > Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: MySQL 3.23.28 > > > In the last episode (May 28), Jason Halbert said: > > Hi all: > > > > I'm having a problem with adding the port > mysql-server-3.23.38.tgz on > > 4.3-STABLE. > > I get the following error: > > > > su-2.04# pkg_add mysql-server-3.23.38.tgz > > Sorry, the host 'jason-n3xt' could not be looked up. > > Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a > correct hostname. > > > > The only thing I can think of is it resolves "jason-n3xt.org" then > > tries to reverse lookup the IP which does not return > "jason-n3xt.org". > > That's probably the case.
