I am going to ask a real stupid question here so bear with me. I currently have mysql 5.0.18 installed and am trying to upgrade to the slotted version 5.0.18-r30. I am following the upgrade guide found at: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/mysql-upgrade-slotted.xml I am having trouble at step 3 Important: If you are upgrading between version revisions (ie. dev-db/mysql-5.0.18 to dev-db/mysql-5.0.18-r30), you can simply stop the database, move from one data directry to the other, and restart the server. This allows you to skip this section entirely. Can somebody please tell me how I "move from one data directry to the other." I am not quite sure what that means or how to do it. Thanks. Somebody on the forums asked if I copied the contents of /var/lib/mysql to /var/lib/mysql-500. I tried this but then mysql-500 failed to start like the procedure said. The error I got in the log was; In the /var/log/mysql-500/mysqld.err 060205 13:01:32 [Warning] No argument was provided to --log-bin, and --log-bin-index was not used; so replication may break when this MySQL server acts as a master and has his hostname changed!! Please use '--log-bin=host-bin' to avoid this problem. /usr/sbin/mysqld-500: File './host-bin.index' not found (Errcode: 13) 060205 13:01:32 [ERROR] Aborting 060205 13:01:32 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld-500: Shutdown complete So now where do I go and what do I do? I will add the host-bin.index file is in the directory. Thanks for any help. Kirby -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
