I want to set up a local mysql server + client (preferably graphical, ie
mysqlgui) so have yum installed both perl-DBI and mysql.i386, both
apparently successfully. However, I can't see what to do next to get
mysqld running, as it doesn't appear in the list of services
(in /etc/init.d/). Help appreciated please - is there any good specific
documentation on this anywhere? Also, what's the current opinion/advice
on a graphical user interface for mysql please?

it's hard to go wrong with phpMyAdmin (http://www.phpmyadmin.net/),
which you can get from RPMforge.

Even that won't work without installing the server component of mysql,
which is in the mysql-server package. And giving the security track
record of phpMyAdmin, I'd rather stay away from that.

There is some graphical mysqladmin tool, but I cannot remember its name
...

Cheers,

Ralph

I would also say to stay away from PHPMyAdmin because of the security issues, I would recommend:

-Or-

<http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html>

Thanks

Setting up MySQL in a nutshell. It's in French, but the Linux bits are
universal:

Oh, I don't know - if you say it in French, only a few of us will
understand (and we'll get a good laugh out of it, too!).

Give it a shot!

Au revoir,

Graphical frontends for MySQL?

Saloperie de bordel à cul de pompe à merde.

Was I graphical enough?

PS: My wife's boss, who is a faithful Christian from Marseilles, uses to
yell "Sainte-Pépone de la désolation!" on similar occasions. Which is
way less offensive language.

And just as funny!

Have you ever seen the English subtitled version of "La Cage Aux
Folles?" It was rated PG, I think (snicker).

When Pulp Fiction came out, I saw it in a small cinema in Montpellier,
in english with French subtitles. There's a scene where Bruce Willis is
yelling:


- Jesus Christ!

And the french subtitle for that exclamation:

- Bordel de merde!
