I'd guess he's hitting up against a hostname problem. MySQL won't install if it can't figure out the hostname of the system. Installing from source won't make any difference. Installing from a command like (using the ports, pkg_add or source) will present you with error messages that will indicate the problem. Before doing anything else, make sure your /etc/hosts file is set up properly. Once that's done, MySQL will install by whatever means you choose. -Bill Jason Nugent wrote: > > Dimitri, > > I've always had good luck building MySQL right from the source, available > on MySQL's website. > > http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-3.23.html > > If you scroll down a bit, you'll find a link to the tarred source file for > 3.23.39.
