Re: (OT) Redhat ES 3.0 and MySQL 4.0

I haven't tried installing on a 64 bit server, but I notice one thing off the bat: based on the capitalization of the modules it looks like you're trying to install the rpm's from mysql.com, instead of the ones that ship with Red Hat. There appears to be a conflict between the RPMs and your glibc. I don't have access to my work machine here, so I don't remember what version of glibc (or mysql for that matter) comes with RHEL3, but I would try installing the shipped RPMs first and go from there.

Update: It also looks like you're installing the ia64 RPMs on an AMD64 machine. Try downloading the AMD64 RPMs from mysql and see if that works.

AMD? A Dell 2850 is an Intel Xeon machine with EM64T support. I don't think Dell uses AMD, unless there has been a recent change. Dell and AMD? Still unlikely	[reply]

You make a good point about the Dell. But nonetheless look at the `uname -a` that he posted. It says x86_64, which is the same thing as AMD64.	[reply] [d/l]

And a Xeon is a 32 bit beast even if it supports 64 bit memory addressing with EM64T. Does not compute.	[reply]

You had it right for the most part, I was trying to install the IA64 version. I'm an idiot, read the updated question above for a real update on how stupid I am. Thank-you for your help!! Mark	[reply]

Glad you got it sorted. This is unusual architecture (currently). Almost anything will compile from source on RH so I suggest investing a moment of two to learn about compiling from source may be worth your time. Often all you need is `./configure && make && make install` cheers tachyon	[reply] [d/l]

Does RedHat have MySQL 4.0 RPM modules? the version that was installed was in the 3.x series. I would love to use the ones they suply so I could use them for support. Thanks for your time Mark	[reply]

Do they really have it on their update but not showing it?	[reply]

The version from Redhat is 3.23 from what I can tell. I need 4.0 for a IVR interface issue and the better clustering suport. I'm sure that many others have figured out a better way to solve the issues but for me an update to 4.0 fixed all the issues. Mark	[reply]
