Can't start mysql 5.5 on MAC OS X server

attempting to start MySQL on Mac OS X server 10.6 fails with following error:
[ERROR] /usr/local/mysql-5.5.8-osx10.6-x86_64/bin/mysqld: unknown option '--skip-locking'
appreciate any advice or help how to fix this problem.
thank you.

I had the same problem when upgrading from MySQL 5.1 to 5.5.
The skip-locking construct was removed in mysql 5.5:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/mysql-nutshell.html
Search for skip-locking...
I fixed this by editing /etc/my.cnf. Under [mysqld], change "skip-locking" to "skip-external-locking".
It might be worth your while to grab a new my.cnf from /usr/local/mysql/support-files. There are several default configuration options to choose from. I'm still running my customized version from 5.1, but I'm guessing there are changes that I haven't encountered yet.
Good luck.

Deleted mysql binary log files - can't start mysql

Hi all,
I had mysql running and used it for quite a while.
Since my disk ran out of space, I deleted all the mysql-bin.0000* files in the mysql data folder and configured that mysql should not use binary logs anymore.
Quite a mistake I assume; since now I can't start mysql(d) anymore.
I've tried a lot by now:
- re-installed mysql
- deleted everything in the mysql data folder
But I'm a bit stuck - and can't repair it anymore.. (there is not data loss, everything is backed up - that's not the problem).
Can someone please guide me in a good direction?
Running Arch Linux (systemd).

The data folder /var/lib/mysql is totally empty (which is - I assume - not good...).
Thanks in advance
Disclaimer: I tried for many hours now, but since I'm quite new - I don't have a clue anymore what to do.

These are systemd, not mysql errors, and are quite useless as such -- you already know that mysql does not work Look for /var/log/mysqld.log or $datadir/<hostname>.err -- next time, of course, 'cos there's just one thing to do now: restore your mysql data folder, as there should be much more than binary logs Or, should you prefer to start from scratch, try to use mysql_install_db and then start mysql again.
For future reference, you can safely delete old binary logs from inside mysql using PURGE MASTER LOGS command, and/or consider using expire_logs_days config option.

Can not start mysql server

I recently installed mysql server on my mac os 10.6.8, earlier i had installed XAMPP on my machine but i have uninstalled it(deleted it & ran few commands in terminal), but now when i try to start server from preference pane it doesn't start & not from terminal also, it show " Could not startup MySql sever, Reason: error 255 OR Internal error"
It seems that the new mysql server settings clash somewhere with old XAMPP files/preferences. I don't even know if XAMPP is completely uninstalled or not
I'm not a mysql geek, i'm new to this! So, friends please help me with this, i need to get it working on my mac!!

I appreciate your help.
I have been offline for a long time since I had a business trip two week ago.
I can not start the apache http server, so it isn't on running status within NT services manager.
In fact, there is someting wrong---fail to create FastCGI when startup. Oracle system message tells me that syntax error exists on line 92 of isqlplus.conf but I don't know how to correct it.

Can't start mysql

when I type "rc.d start mysqld" it displays busy for a while, then fails. At this point it does not generate an error message. I have changed the permissions of /var/lib/mysql recursively to 777. I have also created the mysqld directory in /var/run and given it 777 permissions. I hope I have included all the relevant files.
I have read every suggestion on the internet and gotten nowhere. Please help a noobus out. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I seem to have had an issue with mysql as well and it appears to be that I don't have a sock file as I have checked /var/run/mysqld for mysqld.sock and it does not exist so would that be what is stopping mysql server from starting and if so how do I create the sock file ??
Cheers
Quazza
Update - Actually I solved my problem to, it was to do with my log files filling up but that also led to the bigger problem of a failing HD oh what fun anyway got there before any major data loss.

How silly of me.....first of all...I entered 'mysqld start', I should have just entered 'mysqld', second of all, I didn't change the file permission on /var/run/mysqld. I change /var/run/mysqld file permission into 'chmod 777 /var/run/mysqld -R', after that mysql works!

Can't start MYSQL in system preferences 10.6 Snow Leopard

Any suggestions? Thanks.
1. There is no error message.
2. Download and servers won't start in MAPP either.

If you're running Mac OS X Server 10.6 Snow Leopard Server, then MySQL is included, and is started with the Server Admin tool.
If you're using Mac OS X, then what's going on here depends on which MySQL port you're using. MAPP? Would you mean the MAMP tools here?

Getting MySQL to work on Mac OS X Server v10.4

Hi,
I am having trouble with running MySQL 4 on Mac OS X Server 10.4. (While the other application I will be installing works with both versions 4 and 5 of MySQL, I just thought it might be easier to get 4 working since it is the default version that comes with the OS.) I have launched "/Applications/Server/MySQL Manager.app", pressed the install button, then pressed the start button. By pressing the button, I am able to toggle visually between start and stop modes within the GUI. However, upon further inspection, MySQL doesn't seem to be actually running. At the terminal, I get:
$ which mysql
/usr/bin/mysql
$ ls /usr/local
ls: /usr/local: No such file or directory
$ ps -ax | grep mysql
3489 p2 R+ 0:00.00 grep mysql
$ mysql
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?

Actually, this problem is only partially solved. I still get "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock..." when I type 'mysql'. I can access mysql by typing 'sudo mysql', but still get the socket error when connecting via php, so I think I still need to get to the point where I can type mysql without sudo.
Also, I went ahead and installed MySQL 5 with the tar package.

Can I remove all but the last "Mac OS X Server certificate management" application password from my System Keychain?

I am slowly nursing a broken Montain Lion Server back to health. The problems started with a name change days ago then went sour, probably because of some stuff in the keychain that tripped the commands up.
I have now a trusted Root CA in my System Keychain which has signed my wildcard Certificate for my domain and all my services are protected by this wildcard certificate. Creating and installing that certificate helped me back (slowly) but there are still problems to solve
I also have set the com.apple.servermgrd identity preference to this (now trusted) wildcard certificate a few minutes ago
I am busy cleaning as much as possibe of junk from my Keychains to improve stability, of course without damaging things (I hope)
There are 19 "Mac OS X Server certificate management" application passwords in my System Keychain.
12 are from 9 days ago when I installed this clean OS X Mountain Lion Server for the first time, created within a minute during server install.
1 from 6 minutes later, maybe when I turned on a Service
2 are from that day, but 2 and 3 hours later (also probably because of something I did in Server.app, like enabling a service)
1 from 2 days later (probably when I tried to change the server name/domain)
1 from again 5 days later (probably when I tried to change the server name/domain again)
1 from yesterday, when I changed the servername
1 from today, when I changed the server name again.
What are these application passwords for and can I safely remove all but the last one? What are they for?

I went ahead and remove them a month ago. So far, there don't seem to be any issues. As long as you double-triple-check that the hash-number in those "Mac OS X Server certificate management" keychains _aren't_ in the filename of any of the *.pem files in the /etc/certificates folder, you can delete those orphan keychains.

Can't send mail using webmail on Mac OS X Server 10.4

Could someone help me figure out why I can't send email via webmail on Mac Mac OS X Server 10.4. I tried in and out of my LAN but it will not work. I am pretty sure that it's no firewall issue because it won't even work inside the LAN. Another thing I have considered is DNS issues. But my SMTP and POP3 works fine. Don't they use same DNS mail exchange record. Or should I ask my ISP to create a new record for webmail?

Can I connect Windows 7 to a mac network account server

Hi All,
I have a Mac Mini Server allong with a pile of Macs and a few PCs. What I want is being able to login to an ACCOUNT from ANY of my macs OR PCs. So when the computer turns on it asks you to put in a username and password. I know this is possible if all computers are running the same opperating system but i am not sure how to do it with different opperating systems.
Thanks,

I was struggling with this for a few days as well! Finally got it working though ! YAY !
Here are the steps:
1. Add this to your registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\PolicyAgent]
"AssumeUDPEncapsulationContextOnSendRule"=dword:00000002
2. Open secpol.msc (click start > search for secpol.msc)
- Local Policies > Security Options
- Network Security : LAN Manager Auth Level…
- Set to: Send LM & NTLMv2 - UseNTLMv2…
And
- Network Security : Minimum session security… clients
- uncheck "Require 128-bit encryption"
3. Restart PC
4. Create VPN Connection on Windows 7
- Host Name: (server IP or yourhost.name.com)
- PPP Settings : Enable LCP (only)
- Type: L2TP/IPSec
- Pre-shared key : yoursharedsecret
- Data encryption : Optional encryption
- Allow CHAO and CHAPv2
5. Router on server-side must allow VPN Passthrough and forward ports: 50, 51, 500, 548, 1701, 1723, 4500 to the server box. Also, do not filter anonymous internet requests, multicast or NAT Redirection but enable SPI Firewall.
...now you should be good to go

You can try to start the mysqld daemon with:
shell> /usr/bin/mysqld --skip-grant &
and use the command line tool /usr/bin/mysql
to connect to the mysql database and look at the grant tables:
shell> /usr/bin/mysql -u root mysql
mysql> show tables
Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths. Using --log
gives you a log in /var/lib/mysql that may be helpful.
Please consult the MySQL manual section
'Problems running mysql_install_db', and the manual section that
describes problems on your OS. Another information source are the

61 #
62 # To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between

64 #
65 # 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
66 # the syntax is:
67 #
68 # CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
69 # MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
70 #
71 # where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
72 # <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
73 #
74 # Example:
75 #
76 # CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
77 # MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
78 #
79 # OR
80 #
81 # 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
82 # start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
83 # if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
84 # connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
85 # change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
86 # overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
87 # the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
88 # For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
89 # (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
90 #
91 # required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
92 # (and different from the master)
93 # defaults to 2 if master-host is set
94 # but will not function as a slave if omitted
95 #server-id = 2
96 #
97 # The replication master for this slave - required
98 #master-host = <hostname>
99 #
100 # The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting
101 # to the master - required
102 #master-user = <username>
103 #
104 # The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to
105 # the master - required
106 #master-password = <password>
107 #
108 # The port the master is listening on.
109 # optional - defaults to 3306

Can you setup both VPN server and Back to My Mac on Lion Server?

I have been trying to figure out if this is possible for some time. Can you use both Back to My Mac and VPN server services at once on a OS X Server?
So far here is what I have found:
- According to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629 Back to My Mac and VPN use the same UDP ports(500,4500)
- I have been able to get my VPN service working by removing all access for Back to My Mac(in System Preferences->iCloud) as well as removing all "Mobile Me" access on our AirPort Extreme.
The moment I try to add an account to access the network via Mobile Me(ie Back to My Mac) on the Airport Extreme, I am no longer able to make a VPN connection.
Checking the Service VPN Logs, no log entry is shown for the failed connection.
So, my questions are:
1. Has anyone been able to get these two working on the same server/network?
2. Is there any way to change the default ports used by the VPN server service on Lion Server?
Thank you to anyone that can provide any suggestions.

Just as FYI....I just started using iCloud and tried the "back to my mac" on a mac server that is my VPN server.
Enabling "back to my Mac" prevents the VPN from being useable.
Disable "back to my mac" and the VPN works again, as verified from both another MAC and an iPhone.

Can't Star iChat Service after update to Snow Leopard Server

We had installed Mac OS X Server on a Mac Pro, and we had the iChat Service working in the organization; but when we update to the Snow Leopard Server we can't start the iChat service again. In the Server Admin app, on the iChat node in the Overview I have this:
iChat Service is: Stopped
Start time: not available
Domain: not available
Client connections: not available
With the update if I choose the iChat service node, I can't see the Start iChat button.
Can somebody help?
Thanks a lot.

Updating OpenSSL for Mac OS X Server 10.6.7 -- looking for a good walkthrough

Currently running version 0.9.8l... would like to update to the latest version.
There are a lot of tutorials on the net, can someone recommend one that works with Mac OS X Server 10.6.7? (Since many assume the desktop version, and I've noticed occasionally there are some differences.) I've downloaded Xcode 4.0.2, which I assume is required to build it.
Thanks.
...Rene

OK, so I followed the tutorial http://foodpicky.com/?p=99 and it compiled fine. Added /usr/local/ssl/bin to PATH. And now reports version 1.0.0.d.
But... Apache or at least phpinfo() reports that it's still using the old version.
How do I make Apache, and the OS in general, to use the new version?
Thanks!
