To whom it may concern,

I am attempting to install a binary distribution of MySQL v.3.23.6 on a SCO OpenServer 5.05 system. I am able to unpack the distribution using the command:

gunzip < mysql-3.23.6-alpha-pc-sco3.2v5.0.5-i386.tar.gz | tar xvf -

and create a symbolic link using the command:

ln -s mysql-3.23.6-alpha-pc-sco3.2v5.0.5-i386 mysql

I then change to this directory using the command:

cd mysql

My problem is when I issue the command:

scripts/mysql_install_db

I get the following error:

scripts/mysql_install_db: 806 Killed scripts/mysql_install_db: 807 Killed WARNING: Your libc libraries are not 100 % compatible with this MySQL version mysqld should work normally with the exception that host name resolving will not work. This means that you should use IP addresses instead of hostnames when specifying MySQL privileges !

Hi!

Just install zlib from ftp.gnu.org.

You could build MySQL without it, but as it is binary distro, just install a library.
