Hi,

i have a little problem with MySQL!!!

The deamon (program) MySQL dosn't start automatically at the systemstartup.

I must always start them manually by using the command ./safe_mysqld &!!!

Is there a way to start MySQL automatically at startup?????????

If you installed from source there is a directory called support-files that contains a file name mysql.server. This script is placed in your /etc/rc.d directory and you can specify the run level you want MySQL to run in by using a utility called chkconfig. I have attached the file just in case you don't have it but you will need to modify it to reflect your install.
