I installed mysql 5.7.12 on freebsd 10.3 many times, all times i get failed precmd for mysqll , after some checks i identified the problem. Problem is my.cnf if i delete /usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf all work fine.. mysql start. If is necessary i upload video to see problem.
Hi. Port has recently been updated to 5.7.13. We also are changing default locations to match hier(7) and mysql standards. After changes are applied, i guess your problem will be solved. :)
Please keep in mind that the default location for my.cnf has changed from "/var/db/mysql/my.cnf" to "/usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf". Please merge your existing my.cnf with the new one and move it to the new location. If you do not want to move your my.cnf to the new location then you must set "mysql_optfile" in /etc/rc.conf to the location of your own my.cnf file.
(In reply to Markus Kohlmeyer from comment #2) Please read again my first message. I know that default location was changed. I say original my.cnf is bad configured.(In reply to Mahdi Mokhtari from comment #1) Thanks. My package repository still show me 5.7.12 http://prntscr.com/bnug5w But i wait for commit intro pkg.
(In reply to fcsk.aim from comment #3) Have you had chances to check new version ? Did it fix your error?
Closed due to feedback timeout. @submitter: If the problem persists, please provide steps to reproduce the problem to the port maintainer.
