Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a correct hostname. If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart this script with the --force option *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/databases/mysql323-server. this is telling me that my /etc/hosts is wrong. i type 'hostname' and i ge= t the correct hostname. the first 2 lines in my /etc/hosts is ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain i did an nslookup on myself and it gives me the right hostname. i looked up this error on the internet - apparently other people have gotte= n this error as well. =20 >Description: I did "make" and then "make install" for the mysql323-server port, and once= the program reaches the point where mysql_install_db wants to lookup the h= ostname it errors and stops saying that the hostname couldn't not be looked= up. It was only using part of my hostname to be looked up.... =20 >How-To-Repeat: run "make install" for the port of mysql322-server >Fix: In the mysql_install_db code it says to do "hostname -s" when looking up t= he hostname, I changed it to just "hostname" without the "-s" and the probl= em was fixed eventhough I had to do some working around with the make insta= ll b.c by re-running the "make install" it tries to reinstall the database = and will overwrite the mysql_install_db file that was just edited. Maybe t= his is a probkem that should be reported to mysql and not freebsd, but here= you go. :) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: i tried this myself but couldn't get it to work. i could edit hostname -s = to read hostname in mysql_install_db but i couldn't figure out how to get t= he make install script to keep from overwriting the mysql_install_db file. i'd like to install mysql323-server from ports, if at all possible, and i'v= e talked to a lot of people who used ports to install it with no problems. = has anyone else had this problem? if so, how did you get around it. thanks redmond -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9FU6MFNjun16SvHYRAp6NAJ0XJldm+AfWSjmvHjhUd+La3P1P5gCeMmBY Vy4m0Ml4RXAZaKKzjE901E4=3D =3DnHXg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --XsQoSWH+UP9D9v3l Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9FU6SFNjun16SvHYRAphdAJ915dGtA+VpOn3Z6EgMjWxQZrvRAQCcC+yc ZaUkN78KHwV0PgWp3iP4ceQ= =GXmJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --XsQoSWH+UP9D9v3l-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
