I am geting this error:

/etc/init.d/mysqld start
Starting mysqld: [ OK ]
server6:/usr/local/mysql# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe: line 1: ./bin/my_print_defaults: No such file or directory
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe: line 1: ./bin/my_print_defaults: No such file or directory

I get help from John:

http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=154

but in the second step, I get this error:

checking for termcap functions library... configure: error: No curses/termcap library found

if I try to install termcap-compat:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
sendmail-tuning: Depends: sendmail but it is not going to be installed

to install sendmail apt-get wants to remove exim :confused:

any help??

You do NOT want sendmail. If you install it, DA will break quite badly.

yes! for that reason I've stopped

i am looking for how to install termcap

[winger]

ok, it´s working!

- the sendmail dependencie is only in a VPS (virtuozzo) with debian

to update Mysql in a debian 3.1 from the 4.1.10 to the latest 4.1.22 in a server you just have to:

1) http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=154

if you get this error:

checking for termcap functions library... configure: error: No curses/termcap library found

to fix: apt-get install libncurses5-dev

that´s all :D

thanks again John!
