MySQL is a popular database server that is used in various applications. SQL |
| 100 |
stands for (S)tandard (Q)uery (L)anguage, which is what MySQL uses to |
| 101 |
communicate with other programs. On top of that, MySQL has its own expanded SQL |
| 102 |
functions to provide additional functionality to users. In this document, we'll |
| 103 |
look at how to do the initial MySQL installation, set up databases and tables, |
| 104 |
and create new users. Let's start out with the installation. |
| 105 |

<title>MySQL Installation</title> |
| 111 |
<body> |
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
<p> |
| 114 |
First make sure you have MySQL installed on your system. In case you need |
| 115 |
specific functionality from MySQL, please make sure you have the required USE |
| 116 |
flags enabled as they will help fine tune your installation. |
| 117 |
</p> |
| 118 |

| 123 |
# <i>emerge mysql</i> |
| 124 |
</pre> |
| 125 |
|
| 126 |
<p> |
| 127 |
Upon completion of the installation, you will see the following notice: |
| 128 |
</p> |
| 129 |
|
| 130 |
<pre caption="MySQL einfo message"> |
| 131 |
You might want to run: |
| 132 |
"ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-db/mysql-[version]/mysql-[version].ebuild config" |
| 133 |
if this is a new install. |
| 134 |
</pre> |
| 135 |
|
| 136 |
<p> |
| 137 |
Since this is a new installation, we run the command. You need to press |
| 138 |
<c>ENTER</c> when prompted while configuring the MySQL database. The |
| 139 |
configuration sets up the main MySQL database which contains administrative |
| 140 |
information such as databases, tables, users, permissions and more. The |
| 141 |
configuration recommends that you change your root password as soon as |
| 142 |
possible. We will definitely do this, otherwise someone could come along by |
| 143 |
chance and hack our default setup MySQL server. |
| 144 |
</p> |
| 145 |
|
| 146 |
<pre caption="MySQL configuration"> |
| 147 |
# <i>ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-db/mysql-[version]/mysql-[version].ebuild config</i> |
| 148 |
* MySQL DATADIR is /var/lib/mysql |
| 149 |
* Press ENTER to create the mysql database and set proper |
| 150 |
* permissions on it, or Control-C to abort now... |

To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server |
| 161 |
to the right place for your system |
| 162 |
|
| 163 |
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! |
| 164 |
To do so, issue the following commands to start the server |
| 165 |
and change the applicable passwords: |
| 166 |
<comment>(Note the next 3 lines)</comment> |
| 167 |
/etc/init.d/mysql start |
| 168 |
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h pegasos password 'new-password' |
| 169 |
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' |
| 170 |
Depending on your configuration, a -p option may be needed |
| 171 |
in the last command. See the manual for more details. |
| 172 |
|
| 173 |
<comment>(Some MySQL non-ebuild specific information has been removed from here |
| 174 |
so as to keep this document as consistent as possible)</comment> |
| 175 |
|
| 176 |
* For security reasons you should set your MySQL root |
| 177 |
* password as soon as possible. |
| 178 |
</pre> |
| 179 |
|
| 180 |
<impo> |
| 181 |
As of mysql-4.0.24-r2, passwords are entered during the config phase making |
| 182 |
root password entry more secure. |
| 183 |
</impo> |
| 184 |
|
| 185 |
<p> |
| 186 |
The config script has already printed out the commands we need to run to setup |
| 187 |
our password, so we shall now run them. |
| 188 |
</p> |
| 189 |
|
| 190 |
<pre caption="Setting up your MySQL root password"> |
| 191 |
# <i>/etc/init.d/mysql start</i> |
| 192 |
* Re-caching dependency info (mtimes differ)... |
| 193 |
* Starting mysqld (/etc/mysql/my.cnf) ... [ ok ] |
| 194 |
<comment>(Replace new-password with your desired password)</comment> |
| 195 |
# <i>/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password 'new-password'</i> |
| 196 |
</pre> |
| 197 |
|
| 198 |
<p> |
| 199 |
You can now test that your root password was successfully configured by trying |
| 200 |
to login to your MySQL server: |
| 201 |
</p> |
| 202 |
|
| 203 |
<pre caption="Logging into the MySQL server using mysql"> |
| 204 |
$ <i>mysql -u root -h localhost -p</i> |
| 205 |
Enter password: |
| 206 |
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. |
| 207 |
Your MySQL connection id is 4 to server version: 4.0.24-debug |
| 208 |
|
| 209 |
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. |

<p> |
| 215 |
The <c>-u</c> switch sets the user that will be logging in. The <c>-h</c> |
| 216 |
switch sets the host. This will usually be <c>localhost</c> unless you are |
| 217 |
setting up a remote server. Finally, <c>-p</c> tells the mysql client that you |
| 218 |
will be entering a password to access your database. Notice the |
| 219 |
<c>mysql></c> prompt. This is where you type in all your commands. Now that |
| 220 |
we're in the mysql prompt as the root user, we can begin to setup our database. |

We have logged in and a mysql prompt is displayed. First let's take a look at |
| 235 |
the databases we currently have. To do so, we use the <c>SHOW DATABASES</c> |
| 236 |
command. |
| 237 |

Please remember that MySQL commands should end with a semicolon -- <c>;</c> |
| 252 |
</impo> |
| 253 |
|
| 254 |
<p> |
| 255 |
Despite the fact that a test database is already created, we are going to |
| 256 |
create our own. Databases are created using the <c>CREATE DATABASE</c> command. |
| 257 |
We'll create one named "gentoo". |
