To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy
support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
./bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h bcserver4utest password 'new-password'
Alternatively you can run:
./bin/mysql_secure_installation
which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default. This is
strongly recommended for production servers.
See the manual for more instructions.
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd . ; ./bin/mysqld_safe &
You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test-run.pl
cd ./mysql-test ; perl mysql-test-run.pl
Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script!
# chown -R root .
# chown -R mysql data
# cp support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf-- [可选]复制配置文件
4) 以mysql用户在后台启动数据库
# bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
默认情况：数据文件在data目录下
5) 创建自启动脚本
# cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql
以后启动直接输入
# /etc/init.d/mysql restart|start
进入数据库管理命令
$ bin/mysql -u -root -p
